Caritas International
Merry Amony (18) stopped going to school in 2018. She met the baby's dad in 2021 in Gulu. She didn't plan to get pregnant and when she talks about is, she cries. While she was together with him, he was cheating on her with other girls. When she got pregnant, he told her nog to abort, so she kept the baby. Whenever she was upset about it, he beat her up. After all the fights she attempt suicide. "I was so sad, I really wanted to work and raise money to go back to school before getting a child. My dream is to study and become a soldier to help people. My wish for my son Trevor is that he is able to study and that he will be kind to girls and woman."
