Marlon’s family once enjoyed stability, thanks to his father’s work as a nurse. His parents were able to send their children to boarding school and support their dreams. But when Marlon’s father lost his job due to issues with his nursing certification, everything changed. The loss of income strained the family, and Marlon’s mother eventually left, leaving him and his two brothers in their father’s care.

Now a single parent without steady income, Marlon’s father is doing his best to meet their basic needs—but affording school fees has become nearly impossible.

Marlon dreams of becoming a doctor, and with the right support, he can continue his education and work toward that goal. The family is hopeful for a sponsor who can help keep Marlon and his brothers in 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.
