HELP THIS FAMILY TO TURN AROUND

‘’I was hardworking, and wasn’t a beggar before, but now see what is happening to me! I often cry and feel not worthy whenever I can’t send my children to school.

It hurts me so much when I can’t feed them either. I have tried to lookup for a job, but I can’t find a paying job because I don’t have the skills required.

The casual jobs I come across and do only help to provide food for my children but not house rent. Friends are tired of me because I am poor and appear as a beggar to them. Zulah’’

And, Hilda her firstborn adds; "I am growing up in the background that even

my mom wakes up in the morning and forgets that she had kids at home because of poverty. I forgot about breakfast, meat, sugar, shoes, and safe menstruation. When I try to go to school, they send me back home because I don’t have money for tuition and materials. And when I reach home, I find all my other siblings had already been sent back and mom was not sure where our lunch will come from. As a girl and a firstborn, I always wonder whether there will happen a day in our lives when mom gets an income and she can feed, clothe and educate me and all my siblings. Hilda’’

This is a story of a desperate family headed by a young single mother of 5 children who narrowly missed death after a domestic wrangle involving her husband’s family over the land she was plowing to provide food for her children. And because of her low levels of education, for over 6 years now, she has never had access to a paying job. So it is a daily struggle for her to provide food, shelter, medical care, clothing, and bedding for herself and her children.
