During this time, I had no one to turn to and decided to move to the streets. While on the streets I would beg for money from passers, pick some left over foods from garbage heaps and also do some other odd jobs to earn a living. This was not easy for me as I would some times be beaten terribly by the big boys who accused me of encroaching on their territory.
In June 2002, CRO social workers found me on the streets begging as usual. They counseled me and invited me to the CRO center where I was enrolled in a rehabilitation class for a year and later enrolled in North Road Primary School to resume my studies. I sat for my Primary Leaving Examinations (PLE) in 2008 and now waiting for my results.
I love playing football. I play in my school team and for the CRO team. I also participated in the coca cola tournament under 14 years in which I represented the eastern region of Uganda. I have also won individual awards because of football
I thank CRO for taking me off the streets, and enrolling me back to school. They have given me the opportunity to realize who Iam. I now looking forward to a bright future. After my studies I want to be a social worker. I thank all the people who support CRO. May God bless you very much!
