Marie Kevin is a dedicated student who loves learning and is currently attending a local school. Her parents, however, are struggling to find stable employment that can support their children's education.

Marie's mother used to work as a cleaner at a hospital but lost her job in 2021 due to staff reductions. Since then, she has joined Marie’s father in gardening, which has become their only source of income. They grow food on a small piece of land and occasionally earn money by helping in other people's gardens.

Having been exposed to the hospital environment, Marie’s mother dreams of her daughter becoming a medical professional—something she herself was never able to achieve. Marie shares this dream, inspired by the medical workers she met during visits to her mother’s workplace. However, achieving this goal will be difficult without financial sponsorship.

Marie and her family live in a remote village where the nearest school is too far to walk each day. For her to have a better future, she needs the opportunity to attend a boarding school.

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.
