I live in Makota Village with both of my parents, Nandase Imelda (mother) and Lwanga Julius (father), and my four siblings. I am the youngest child in the family, with two brother and two sisters. We live in a modest house of two bedrooms and one living room. I help out at home by doing dishes, collecting water from the borehole, collecting firewood for cooking, doing laundry, doing garden work, cooking and cleaning both our house and compound. My parents are peasant farmers who rent land to grow crops mainly for home consumption. My father also works as a casual laborer, driving farm tractors which are used in gardens. From this work, he earns about UGX 100,000 ($25.47) per month during the farming season. Despite their hard work, our family’s income is limited and is not enough to meet all our needs, including my educational expenses. I am a humble boy who values education and is determined to work hard in my studies. I kindly request educational support to enable me to continue my education and achieve my future goals. Your assistance towards my education will be sincerely appreciated
