Mother studied up to Primary seven and dropped out of school due to lack of school fees and she got married to Maria’s father but after delivery the father disappeared (abandoned the mother and the baby) as he never gave any support to the family and it is the mother who struggles to get school fees and other necessities to support the family. She learnt doing hairdressing from a friend and she does hair painting to some people in the village and some time does garden work in other people’s garden to feed Maria and sustain the family but has reached a level where she cannot support Maria in school as well as paying the room where they sleep hence seeking for support from caritas for Children.

Maria is a Careful girl who takes any situation simple and easy and would like to become a fashionist to create a new design in the world.

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.
