Boune lives in a small village about five kilometers east of Jinja. Both his mother and father passed away from AIDS when he was still young, leaving him and his two sisters in the care of their aunt. Because their aunt has two children of her own to take care of, she cannot pay school fees for Boune and his sisters, who have not been schooling this year.

Your support will give Boune the opportunity to get the quality education and health care that he deserves. Thank you for your prayers, commitment, and support.
