I happily introduce to you Tricia who stays with both her parents in eastern part of Uganda. They stay in a grass thatched house. She is not yet at school due to her age. She likes playing with empty tins and moving with her mother all the time. The family keeps on cultivating their small piece of land every season, hence leaving the land degraded and infertile, during time of harvesting the yields are always low which is not enough to sustain the family food security, even the family ends up sleeping hungry leading to malnourishments in the child. So when the child falls sick, access to medications becomes difficult to attain since it requires some a cost to reach the health facilities. This makes them to buy drugs in the private clinics which is too expensive to attain by the family leaving the child untreated whenever she falls sick hence leaving in unhealthy conditions. So your kind sponsorship towards Tricia and family will cause a great impact in their family due to ChildFund program activities for development.
