Martha hails from a family of seven siblings, facing the challenge of limited financial resources. Her father, a dedicated primary school teacher, diligently imparts knowledge but struggles to earn a substantial income from his profession. Her mother is a homemaker, lacking an external source of income. This financial strain leaves the parents grappling to meet the fundamental necessities of all their children.

Amidst these circumstances, Martha shines as a beacon of brightness. Her enthusiasm for learning is unwavering, and she holds a deep affection for her studies. However, the family's financial constraints present a formidable obstacle, inhibiting her father's ability to provide the essential support required for her education.

Martha's aspirations are fervent, and she dreams of becoming a nurse, driven by a desire to care for others. Her vision of contributing to the well-being of her community is vivid and commendable. Yet, without external assistance, her educational journey might be hindered.

 

About my community:
St. Francis of Assisi (Lugazi)
In the Lugazi Diocese, CARITAS finds some of the poorest families in all of Uganda. Because of St. Francis of Assisi's great love for the poor, he is the patron of this community. We pray for his intercession so that more children in this diocese have a chance to overcome the poverty that they have always known.
About my country:
Uganda
Known as the "Pearl of Africa," Uganda is located on the shores of Lake Victoria in the Great Lakes region of East Africa. Since emerging from decades of civil war and the devastation of AIDs, estimates indicate that 48% of Uganda's population is below the age of 15. Young children suffer disproportionately in the struggle to access healthcare, education, and clean water.
