My Story

My Home Life:

I live in Nalwire Village with my parents. My father is Wanyama Tonny, and my mother is Kalekwa Shamin Grace. We live in a two-room grass-thatched house. I have three siblings—two sisters and one brother—and I am the second born in the family.

At home, I am responsible for doing garden work, fetching firewood, collecting water from the borehole, washing utensils, and cleaning both my house and the compound.

My parents work hard as peasant farmers, but their income can only cover some of our basic needs. I often struggle with school fees and have been a school fees defaulter. That is why I am seeking support to continue my education and work towards achieving my dream.
