Name:<\/strong> Kasuswa Aidah
Age:<\/strong> 49 Years old
Not too old in age but worn out by various responsibilities at home while taking care of 5 children who were left with behind by her late husband who died in 2016<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

In her widowhood life, Aidah has sacrificed her energy and time to cultivate on different people\u2019s crop farms in order to earn food and a little penny to survive on with her children at home.
These 6 people stay in a one-roomed, grass thatched, mud house with no beddings except the rugs and papyrus rigs they use to sleep on and at the same time cover themselves with the same materials<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Not only is it hard to get what to put on but also eating a single hot meal in a day is a miracle on its own. Unless God opens a door of provision, children won\u2019t be in position to attain formal education due to lack of financial muscle at home.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n\n\n\n
