ZEDI TIBALUBYE

Background

Zedi stays at a remote hidden Island with his mother who suffers from alcohol abuse and his 13 year old brother who takes care of his young siblings and the home most of the times when the mother is away for a drink. 

Most of the time, Zedi and his elder brother are home alone with no single food and not sure when they will have the next meal. Zedi’s father died of HIV AIDS in February 2023 and his mother is also HIV positive and sometimes she gets very sick.

Sometimes their mother is hired to dig on other people’s gardens on the island and earns very little money which she spends mostly on alcohol leaving the children with no food and basics.

Zedi has a younger brother that is already sponsored under Help Africa at the school in the city and he admires him so much. Zedi is not in school due to lack of school fees and dreams of going to school one day just like his younger brother Babeelo.

Zedi is looking for a sponsor that will support him go to school in the city which will truly change and make a difference in his life.
