Their story...

He has never yet been to school or nursery. His mother is a single parent with 6 children so she can’t afford to send him to school herself.

Interests and Hobbies...

He likes playing with and repairing broken things to make homemade toys to play with.

Future plans...

His mother would like him to get a good enough education that he could be anything he chose i.e. a doctor. But he is obviously too young to have plans himself yet!

Notes:

Would like to start with day school but progress to boarding school soon as it would give him a better education.

Child Financial Needs:

The Ugandan government does not offer free education at any level. Before coming to the home, many of the children had been forced to drop out of school because they were unable to pay the fees. El-Shadai Family Foster Home believes that all children should have an education and a safe, loving environment where all of their basic needs are met.
