"Dad has to take care of us on his own. I'm very proud of him. When I grow up, I want to take care of Dad the same way he takes care of us. That's why I want to be a nurse."

My story

Hi! My name is Nakitende Jackline and I was born on April 4, 2014. I have two sisters and a brother. We live with dad and my nephew in a house with five rooms. Mum left us. Every day I enjoy walking to school in Lukumbi. Except when it rains, then I don't really want to get wet. When we play outside during the break, I prefer to play korfball. During class, I'm best at math. My favorite food is potatoes.

Why Jackline needs our help

Her father is a single father with five school-age children. He works in the fields to grow daily food for the family. There is no monthly income.
