My Story

My Home Life: I am the third born in my family, living in Butangala Village with my parents. I have three brothers and four sisters. At home, I help by collecting firewood, fetching water from the well, washing utensils, and keeping the house and compound clean.

My father suffered a stroke and is now bedridden. My mother takes care of him by bathing him and attending to his daily needs. She works tirelessly as a peasant farmer, growing crops such as maize, beans, and sweet potatoes. Some of the crops are for home consumption, while others are sold to earn a small income. The little money she earns from selling part of the harvest is used to cover basic household needs and support the education of my siblings and me. However, it is not enough, which is why I am seeking your support to continue my education and achieve my dreams.
