I introduce to you James a humble and active boy living in Eastern Uganda with his father and siblings in a small single-roomed mud house which accommodates a few members while other children sleep in the neighborhood for lack of space. Their source of livelihood is subsistence farming done on a small piece of land which never provides sufficient yields besides, the father offers night security at a nearby company and this earns him an average monthly income of US 30 dollars. For days, they sleep without a meal, something that endangers the well-being of children. Access to detergents is a hurdle and children spend fortnights in school uniform unwashed which with time harbors lice and cause skin infections that are never attended to. James dreams of becoming a teacher however, this might not be achieved if not supported because his school attendance is already irregular due to a lack of scholastic materials and tuition making his chances to drop school at a tender age high. Nonetheless, he is active and plays football with his peers. At home, he sweeps the compound. Your kind support will enable his dream to come true.
