Joan K.

Birthday: 8/4/2014

Location: Kiburara, Uganda

Joan’s father tragically died in an accident. As a result, Joan and her 3 siblings are in the care of their aunt, as their mother could not take care of them. Thankfully, Joan is a healthy girl and she has been able to begin her education at a local primary school, although she is only in kindergarten.

Joan 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.
