Hello this Lenita a young girl living with her parents and siblings in the eastern part of Uganda which is agricultural and savannah in nature. At home they call her Len which is her nickname and she likes and feels proud. They live in a temporary shelter made of rough and dusty floors which pauses a threat as they keep suffering from flu and jiggers, this drains the family income through treatment. Lenita and siblings dont sleep under a mosquito net and this exposes them to mosquito bites which cause malaria, this affects their income. The family owns a small piece of land which produces little food and this makes to sometimes to have one meal a day. This retards growth and development and malnutrition is likely to occur. Their brains are affected and thus growing up unhealthy and unable to secure a good future. Your support will enable Lenita and family participates in appropriate programs that will uplift their families.
