Story

My name is Maria Ntsamba, i’m 18 years old.

I lost my dad this year due to cancer and my mom died giving birth to me so it was just my dad who raised. We live in a village and I’m in grade 12 sitting for my final exam, so basically I’ll go to college next year. I’m currently living with my grandma since she is the only family I know, I don’t know anyone from my mom’s side.

My grandma gets old people monthly fund which we use to buy food and everything else we need but it’s never enough, so I work in my neighbors house during the weekend (cleaning, doing the laundry and some other stuff).

I save little by little of the money I get so that I can go to college next year but it’s not enough, that’s why I started this campaign.
