Simon K.

Birthday: 6/9/2015

Location: Kiburara, Uganda

Simon’s father was tragically killed in a motorcycle accident just this past September. This left him and his 3 siblings in the sole care of their mother, who does not earn enough to provide for all of their needs. Thankfully, Simon is a healthy boy and he has been able to remain in school. He is currently in first grade at a local primary school.

Simon lives in a village near Kiburara, Uganda.  Runyankore and Rukiga are the main languages spoken in this area.  Kiburara is also home to Hope Community School, established by Covenant Mercies in 2020.
