Get Barbara the help she needs

Donation protected
From Peter Waiswa who is helping Barbara:

Barbara is a 13 year old girl with special needs living in an impoverished neighborhood of Namwendwa Subcounty, Kamuli District in Eastern Uganda.

In our society, being special needs is still considered a curse. Barbara`s father denied her because of her condition and left her to her mother. When Barbara was five, her mother brought her to our village and left her with her maternal grandmother. She is in her late 60s and struggles with her own health. Barbara's legs are crippled and her hands are bent in. She cannot walk or stand and has to be lifted to the toilet. Now her grandmother struggles to do this as she ages and weakens. They both live in poverty.

You and I know that Barbara is not cursed.

Please join hands with me and we help Barbara. We are seeking £3000 to:

  • Repair Barbara and her grandmother's home
  • Reconstruct the latrine to support Barbara's toilet needs
  • Buy a wheelchair for Barbara to help her move around
  • Support with some essentials like food and clothing.

Please help as you can.
