Latavia N.

Picture
Latavia is a spunky, social girl who adores school and works hard to earn good grades.  She is joyful and bright, and never hesitates to run over to our van to greet us, take our hands, and lead us around, introducing us to people and showing us her classroom and home.  She excels in English, and is quite fluent and talkative.  Her teachers say that she is bold!  Latavia is a single orphan, as her father has passed away.  Both Latavia and her mother are HIV positive and are both struggle to stay healthy.  Latavia's mother is a determined woman (we see where Latavia gets her drive for life!) and even though she is weakened by her sickness, she is asking for the opportunity to work and provide for her children.  We are asking for a few basic need donations for Latavia, and, in addition, please consider supporting a new roadside vegetable stand for Latavia's mother.

Vegetable Stand Project:
Latavia's mother, Jalia, is asking for the opportunity to work to support her family.  She has researched work options, and has proposed a plan to build and run a roadside fruit and vegetable stand.  These types of small businesses are very common in Uganda, and as Latavia's family lives near a large main road, we would like to help support Jalia in her desire to work.  Please consider a donation towards this cause!  We will try to send any donors photos of the completed stand!

Nambazira Janat

Picture
Little Janat is a favorite at her school!  She is known for being a friend to everyone, and is always holding hands with the other girls and sharing with the other girls.  She loves skipping rope and singing, and at home she is in charge of mopping the cement floor and washing her own clothes.  Her mother has passed away from AIDS and her father is very sick with HIV/AIDS.  Since her father is ill, he cannot care for Janat and so she lives with her elderly grandmother who sells extra tomatoes from the  family's garden to try and earn a small income.  Janat would like to become a teacher, and we think that this is the perfect fit with her caring and giving nature.  You can help make sure that Janat and her grandmother have food in their home by providing an item!

Maria Nantume

Picture
TRUE Africa volunteers found Maria on a home visit to a neighboring child.  She was four years old and very wary of adults.  We discovered that she was being chased away by neighbors in the village for fear that her condition was contagious.  She was also not allowed to attend school because of her skin condition.  TRUE Team members immediately knew that finding an educational sponsor for Maria would be crucial, to keep her as a valued part of the village and give her a chance at a successful future. After seeking medical advice, we were able to determine that she had a skin pigmentation disorder, and was NOT infectious.  When a sponsor was found for Maria's education, TRUE Africa visited the local school.  They presented a letter describing Maria's condition to the principal and explained that Maria was NOT infectious and should be admitted to school...and she was!!  

Maria is now a happy and successful little girl!  She adores her teachers, who say that she has a talent for mathematical concepts.  She is now able to enjoy socializing with the other children at school and her village. Maria especially loves singing and dancing.   Her Vitiligo causes itching, but through her sponsor, she receives all medications to keep her healthy.  Maria would like to become a nurse!

Patrick Kasango

Picture
Patrick is a humble and hardworking boy.  He has a condition called strabismus, which makes his right eye unable to focus.  Despite this, he is known as a good "digger", meaning he is good at using a hoe to break up the hard orange clay soil in his family's garden, to prepare the soil for planting.  Despite digging most of the day, his teachers say he takes good care to wash himself and stay clean and well kept.  Patrick's father has passed away, and his mother is very sick with Malaria, so Patrick was recently moved to a boarding school, where he can get good meals and care from his teachers.  Patrick's favorite subject is science, and he would love to become an engineer!
