Hi, I'm Precious
I'm a girl, 8 years old and live in Uganda.
Her parents are struggling to look after the family, they are peasants in village. They struggle to get rent of fifteen thousand shilling monthly. The parents find it difficult to have their children receive medication due to long distance to reach the health facility.
She is a healthy child and is mentally and physically well.
Precious lives with both parents and two other children. Her mother carries out peasantry on a small plot of land for food and some income to support the family. Her father is jobless. The income by the mother is usually not enough to meet the needs of the family. They eat two meals a day and we just enrolled her for pre-school education but she lacks scholastic materials, has few clothes and lacks proper bedding.
