Obwaagazi Family Sponsorship Program

Patience

Patience lives at home with her mom, dad, grandma and 4 siblings in Masese, Uganda. They own a temporary house made of wood with a dirt floor. The house has electricity and a shared latrine, but no running water. To get water they go behind their house, and make it safe drinking water by boiling it or using tablets.

​

The family is facing some financial problems. Patience’s mom is in Uganda and sells products in town, but her dad is a fisherman in Kenya. It’s hard for them to get enough money for food and daily meals.
