When Kagere's father passed away, his mother was left to fend for them, and this was a very tough time for them as they were thrown out of their home by his father's relatives. Kagere's mother tried to find a good place to live but failed, because her income from washing clothes in the community was too little. The Neighbourhood team at Divine Hearts learnt of their plight and offered the family housing. Kagere's mother was then enrolled into the program for skilling and discipleship, and soon Kagere too was enrolled at Emka Junior school to receive quality education.
