Project Report | Feb 3, 2021
First Beneficiary -Jenifer Single mother helped

By Charles Olupot | Project Leader

She is a disabled Mother of five children.
She is a disabled Mother of five children.

Dear Donor and our All our dedicated sponsors, here is a big story about a disabled mother one of the selected one hundred women to benefit from the simple loan of 50 USD to help start a business, these women leave very hard life trying to fend for their children to get where to sleep, eat and get education, medical care and clothing.

This one particular example is a story that can make you cry, this parents is born with only four fingers each in one hand and not  regarded normal by the society and men in particular do not consider her good to marry, but still some drunkards get access to her and make her pregnant and as a result she has got five children and this men do not show up as responsible or the rightful fathers to these children and the poor mother is left with no choice but to care for these five children single handed.

the problem is, the first two not in the photo are now out of school, the boy is the first born and has been forced by difficulties to marry early at the age of 17, and the second born, a girl is also out of the school during this COVID time, she had tried to help her mother in making and selling silver fish but she was chased from the home the mother was working as a house help back to the street and she is now living and sleeping in verandas in Pallisa Town.

The other children are young, two boys in the photo, and the little girl the mother is carrying, the third born is very good in football but has no opportunity to be scouted by any scout  or school to go to, he was hired to chase birds in the rice fields and he pay would be to get cloth,, or food to take home to share with the mother, he too has helped the mother in selling silver fish, as the mother goes to dig in peoples farms / gardens to get what to eat, and the young brother-second last born is left home to care for the little baby girl.

life in general is very difficult for this woman , she has no place to call home, she keeps moving from home to home, looking for what to do, and most times sleep under verandas this is where drunks get opportunity to use her,, and make her pregnant, and left to suffer with the children,

Our organisation came to her help and tried to take her three children to our school, but it has been a problem because the mother has no permanent home, she moves from place to pace in search of accommodation, work and food, and most recently due the outbreak of Corona, she has moved but the good news we gave her some money to start a small business of making cassava chips and continue selling silver fish. From the 93 USD sent we gave her 50 USD to start her business, if where possible, and there would be a kind donor, the best would be to get her 2000 USD and she is helped to buy land and build a grass hurt/ house and a toilet to start her life from, she cannot live that life of wondering forever, she is now 49 years of age.

Thank you to all our donors for the kind hearts you put in helping such women and struggling mother in Pallisa Uganda.

Let join hands and support them more and more, we have many of such parents, others are making mats from papyrus rids from swamps to get money to feed, clothe and pay for medical bills for their households including sending and keeping their children at school, if we can, get each the 100 women given 100 USD each to start a business.
