Mary lost her father when she was just two years old, leaving her mother to take on the responsibility of raising Mary and her sister, Anitah chloe Nalule, by herself. Despite her best efforts, Mary's mother struggles to make ends meet by doing odd jobs, but the income she earns is not enough to cover all their needs, including the cost of sending her daughters to school.

Mary was fortunate to receive sponsorship in the past, which allowed her to attend a boarding school for several years. However, she recently lost her longtime sponsor, and now her mother is deeply concerned that without new sponsorship, Mary will be forced to drop out of school. Completing her education is crucial for Mary, as it would open up opportunities for a better future. Mary's mother is hopeful that a new sponsor will help Mary continue her studies and reach her full potential.

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.
