Hi, I'm Joline
I'm a girl, 5 years old and live in Uganda.
Joline stays with her mother who is a widow in the village of Kiwogo. The husband passed on years back and since then, the mother is the bread winner for the family. No support from the relatives towards the family. The mother is a peasant farmer depending on cultivation of food crops on a small piece of land. She also does casual labour to at least get some income to buy basics for home use. However, she struggles to raise funds to support her 5 children with basics in areas of education, health, beddings, nutrition, clothing and other home basics like soap, sugar and others. The children love schooling and some had started but due to lack of funds, she cannot ably support them. Thus, she asks for support towards her children for a bright future.
