I work with The Remnant Generation that helps sexually abused girls. Every case makes my heart bleed more.I look forward to that day when Sexual abuse will be no more. This girl was abused even before she even started school..
The story
On May 4th 2020, little Angel’s dad hired 3 young men to cut down some overgrown trees in their compound. Out of courtesy, Angel’s grandmother offered the men a drink in the house since it was quite hot outside. During the break, this 22-year old man created a conversation with the little girl, pulled out his phone and started showing Angel videos on his phone. When everyone left to return to work, he stayed behind on the pretext of wanting to use the bathroom…. And that was when the abuse happened.
Angel is in a lot of pain, both psychologically and physically. She can no longer hold back her urine or stool and requires urgent reconstructive surgery. Her grandmother also told us that Angel wakes up screaming most nights, a clear sign that she is still traumatised by what happened to her. Unfortunately, her father is a peasant who cannot afford medical care, or even the right kind of support she needs.
The Remnant Generation has been paying Angel’s medical bills at Lyantonde Hospital but we can only do so much with the limited resources we have. We would like her to access better medical care in Kampala as well as psycho-social support to help her forget the trauma and live a normal life.
Help us raise $5,000 (Five thousand dollars) to ensure Baby Angel has a chance at living a normal and happy life. Additionally, 30% of Angel’s fund will also help other child abuse survivors access medical treatment.
To our partners in Uganda and East Africa who would prefer other payment modes please contact +256 755 476 188 or send email to [email protected] for advice.
Together, we can save a life.
