Sophia is a single mother.
Her husband married another woman, leaving Sophia and their children.
Her children go to primary and secondary schools, but Sophia struggles to pay the school fees.
Sophia receives some food from her neighbors’ farms but the family eats only in the evenings.
Their diet is potatoes, cabbages and Ugali.
They live in a 2 room house without a kitchen, however this offers little protection and they have to use a well for water and lamps for light.
