Many village families are really large… some with multiple
wives each with 10 to 12 children… so to find a family with one wife and only 4
children is considered a small family!
Charity and Davis live with their mama and tata (local term
for father) along with their two younger siblings in a small house near the
ITFM campus. The parents are peasant
farmers living on someone elses land.
They are very poor due to working for others and making a very small
income.
Charity is 5 years old and her birthday is the 24th
of September 2008. Her full name is
Ampiire Catherine Charity. Her favorite
school subject is writing and she enjoys singing. She desires to be a health worker or nurse
when she grows up. At home she helps to
fetch water, clean the compound and clean the utensils.
Davis is 3 years old and his birthdate is the 10th
of June 2010. His full name is Byamukama
Davis. His favorite school subject is
reading charts and he enjoys dancing. He
wants to be a teacher when he grows up.
Davis has an on going skin condition that causes scabies looking bumps
all over his arms, legs, and abdomen.
