My Story

My Home Life: I live in Nalwire village with my grandparents, Natocho Consilata and Wandera Alex. I have three siblings—two sisters and a brother—and I am the second-born in our family. My father, Bwire Lenard, abandoned us and moved to Tanzania, while my mother separated from him and also returned to Tanzania.

At home, my responsibilities include fetching firewood, collecting water from the borehole, washing utensils, cleaning the house and compound, and doing garden work. My grandparents work hard as peasant farmers, but they can only meet some of our basic needs. This is why I need help to continue my education and achieve my dreams.
