Annah is 58-year-old mother of nine children in rural Uganda. Annah and her husband Sunday are subsistence farmers growing corn, bananas, and passion fruits and recently started growing coffee.
Annah has a uterine prolapse which has become very painful and stopped her from working and weave mats. During her free time, Annah likes playing with her grandchildren, listening in to the radio programs about nutrition and sanitation. In 2012, Annah was nominated as a health educator in her community to help teach people about nutrition and hygiene.
Unfortunately Annah has for the last three months failed to go to any gatherings, or do her work at home. She will need a hysterectomy to be relieved of this pain. And when she recovers, she hopes to continue doing her work and wishes to start a small business of selling crafts and mats in her community.
“I wish to thank the donors for the support they give to people like us who without support would not have got these life turning services. May God bless you so much.” Annah
