About

Sauya has a mother & five sisters. They stay in a rural area about 50 miles from Kampala, the main city. Her mother is a peasant who relies on growing food for sale but on a small scale. Being a widow, she can hardly sustain her family needs with her income. Sauya's father died of AIDS and so her mother is on medication. Sauya has been in a in a very poor elementary school and completed 7th grade there. She is now starting in High school (at Rita's school). She is very far behind, due to the low quality of her elementary school. She is very bright and we expect she will make good progress during this year.
