My name is Ritah. When I grow up my dream is to be a doctor.

I wake up early in the early morning, make I walk a distance of about 2 kilometers to reach my school. I get back from school at around 2 pm. I walk another 2 kilometers to go get water for drinking and cooking. I live with my parents and four of my siblings. My friend’s name is Sharon. My favorite game/sport is Athletics.

I live in a Sub-urban area in the south-western part of Uganda. Our nearest town is where we buy things like salt for cooking, clothes, books, pencils to use in school. I sleep in a semi-permanent house. It is a mud house thatched with iron sheets.

Pray for me to have school fees. Pray for God to give me a good life and future. I also need books and a school uniform in which you pray to God that He will hear our prayers.
