My Story
Ashiraf’s parents divorced when he was still an infant. Soon thereafter, Ashiraf was abandoned by his mother, an HIV-positive prostitute in Busia Town Council, when he was only two years old. Although Ashiraf’s father is still alive, he has remarried, moved to a different district and is unable to care for his son. Ashiraf’s aunt tried to support him but she could not provide the most basic necessities of life. The aunt was so poor she could not afford the 12,000 shillings ($6) needed to have Ashiraf treated for a serious worm infestation in his stomach.
Ashiraf is now under the full care of New Hope.
