Sao is happy living with his parents and a sister called Abibatu. The father works hard as a small scale farmer and he also teaches as a community Teacher. The mother is a housewife who takes care of Sao and his sister. She is also responsible for selling the products yield from their farm. The family monthly income is approximately less than U.S. $230.00. They have serious problems to cover all their most urgent needs due to their low income earning situation. They own their dwelling. It is made of mud bricks with a zinc roof. It has no drainage and their daily meals are not well balanced due to the lack of resources. Sao is not attending school due to his age. He is now in good health and he has been vaccinated against the major childhood diseases. He is cheerful and friendly. He is still very small to help at home.
