Sherinah is currently in the care of her step mother who works as a cleaner in Makerere University and her father is a man who doesn’t want to take up responsibility like paying school fees and even taking care of the home so the mother does everything.

She was introduced to us by children who always come for centre days. She regularly attends centre days. Through our interactions we discovered that they had moved from their home district Bushenyi in the western part of Uganda because of the misunderstandings in their family. They moved to Kampala to start a living which was not easy for them. Her father is a Motorcycle (boda boda) rider while her mother washes clothes for people around. Her mother takes care of most of the family needs and being with 6 children it’s hard for them to raise school fees for them. Promise loves playing indoor games and favourite colour is white because she loves being peaceful. She dreams of becoming a Lawyer.

Aisha was born on 08/12/2005.
She is from a Muslim family.

She lost her father last year due to a boda boda accident which crushed him and died on spot. Her mother had separated with the father when Aisha was young and she got married to another family.
