"The biggest hardship i have faced in my life is the struggle my husband and i go through in paying school fees for our children. We both engage in casual jobs which are not well paying hence the little money we get has to be distributed to paying school fees as well as providing basic needs for our children."

Paul
enrolled.
"I am blessed with a family of thirteen individuals among them 11 kids. Myself being unemployed, I have been unable to fend for their needs especially food, shelter and education. The latter has hit me hard since none of them has been able to finish schooling due to my inability to pay for their school fees. This has made them drop out school rendering them unable to get a job and now we are all together at home. All these has made me feel like a failed parent towards them. This for me is the biggest hardship I have ever experienced. "
