"battered But Not Broken - A Story Of Grit, Grace, And Growth." Imalingat Esther Lost Her Mother At Just 8 Years Old And Was Raised By A Single Father. Life Was Tough-so Tough That She Missed Her S.4 Exams Due To Lack Of School Fees. After A Year At Home, Her Uncle Stepped In And Took Her Back To School, But She Had To Repeat S.3. She Didn't Give Up. Even When Covid-19 Hit, Forcing Her Back To The Village, She Made Mandazi To Support Her Family. Then Came Illness-hemorrhoids That Needed Surgery. Their Leaking House And Foodless Christmas Only Added To The Weight. Still, Esther Pressed On. She Moved To Kampala, Lived With A Friend, And Worked Briefly In Kajjansi As A Teacher, Then In Namasuba With Movit, And Later Found A More Stable Job In Matugga. She Saved Enough To Pursue A Hotel And Catering Course And Is Now Doing Her Internship In Sheraton Hotel. She Still Supports Her Siblings And Dreams Of Reaching A Master's Degree. She Hasn't Given Up-and She Won't.
