I live with my siblings and both parents in Rwenjiri, Mubende District in the Central part of Uganda. My parents grow food crops like beans, corn, sweet potatoes, and vegetables in a small garden mainly for home consumption. In times of drought, the crops dry up and my parents find it challenging to feed us. It is also hard for them to pay for my tuition because their income is small.
