Alice experienced the harsh realities of life in Uganda. Not only was it hard, but the people around her made it more complicated.
She came from a family stricken by poverty and lived in a town where education was reserved, for boys. How would you get out of a situation when you are not allowed the opportunity to an education and a life-changing career?
