About

Born in 1996 in Ngamba village, Judith is the first born child in a family of two children. Her single mother works hard as a house-help within the village and with her meager earnings takes care of the family. Judith is very determined to continue with her studies against all odds and many times she has do manual jobs like fetching water for people and burning charcoal during weekends and holidays in order to supplement her mother's income to pay school fees and buy food. The family does not own any land because culturally, women are not allocated any portion of their father's land. Judith is an exceptionally brilliant student and given the opportunity to study and get a good education she has the potential to excel in life and become a productive person in her family and community.

Dear Christi,
I am fine and it’s my hope that you are also fine. It is my hope that you are doing well in your studies. I am happy to have completed my high school. I can’t forget your efforts and all the TSF for supporting me in my education.

We are currently in the rain season and we have already planted our seeds. Soon we will be weeding.

I am wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2014.
