Steven is a loving child who lives with his grandmother and mother in the same household after the death of the childs grandfather. The family are local peasant farmers who mainly grow crop for their own consumption and just a few surplus for sell. They live in Tigwilizane Community in Luangwa district which is about 270KM away from the capital city of Zambia, Lusaka. They use firewood for cooking their meals and draw water from the nearby borehole whereas lighting in their house is with the candles. The family depends on peasant farming to earn a living with about $30.00 per month which is not enough to help them in livelihood and education for the child. Steven is attending in school attending baby class. His health is good. The family will appreciate a lot if anyone came to their aid. Only his mother is able to read and write in their family.
