Margaret, 28 | Kibera
My name is Margaret and I am 28 years old. I live in the Kibera Slum in Kenya. If you are a widow and you have no one to support you, life is very difficult. My husband died with HIV and I also have HIV. I have two sons and am very proud that they are going to school. Both of them are doing very well in their studies, but sometimes I don’t have enough money to feed them. The house that I was living in was leaking and the walls were falling apart. I was out looking for work recently, when I came home to find that my house was burned down by a neighbor. My family is homeless. But now I am rebuilding my life by learning how to run a micro-business. I believe that after starting my own business, I will be able to support my family.
Margaret is sponsored by Freely in Hope in micro-business training courses.
