My Story

My Home Life:  Christopher lives in a one-bedroom brick house in Kamuli village with my paternal grandmother, Nalongo Aidha, and grandfather, Lumaga Emmanuel. He is the youngest of seven children—two sisters and four brothers. At home, Christopher is responsible for collecting water from the well, washing utensils, and cleaning the house and compound.

His mother left the children to start another family with a different man, and his father went to Kampala to work. Unfortunately, we have not heard from him since, and he does not provide any financial support.

I am a housewife, and my husband is a peasant farmer who works for others to earn an income. He does his best to provide for the family and pay school fees, but what he earns is not enough. We are therefore in need of educational support for the children.
