Issues like illness and poor sanitation are all causes and effects of poverty. That is to say, not having food means being poor, but being poor also often means not being able to afford food or clean water and basic necessities of life.
Poverty has affected children so much, and it has been increasing to the extent that children cannot change their circumstances. Some children at the age of 10 are enrolled in child labor to support their families.
Children from poor backgrounds lag at all stages of education; by the age of three, more destitute children are estimated to be nine months behind children from wealthier backgrounds. It is explained that poor people have more stressful lives due to financial burdens and worries, making them more likely to experience family troubles.
Thanks to JFM, which treats the poor as the rich, giving them hope that someone is caring.

Saba Mathiew: I was born and raised in Uganda, where my journey of learning and service began. I attended Galikwoleka Nursery School, where a strong foundation for my academic life was laid. I later participated in New Eden Christian Primary School for my primary education, a place that nurtured both my character and my love of learning.
For my secondary education, I joined Agape High School, where I completed my Ordinary Level studies. I later advanced to C.T.R, where I completed my Advanced Level education. These years shaped my discipline, resilience, and passion for communication and service.
I pursued higher education at Ndejje University, earning a Bachelor’s degree in Journalism and Mass Communication. My university training equipped me with strong skills in writing, communication, storytelling, and media engagement, which I continue to apply in my professional life.
Currently, I am employed at JesusFedMe.com (JFM) as a Logistics Specialist and Article Author.
