Lucky lives with his parents and younger brother in a borrowed three-room wood house with a cemented floor. The home has access to electricity for light and they fetch water from a well that they boil to drink. They have an outdoor kitchen and use firewood for cooking. They do not have a bathing facility but use an outdoor pit latrine.
Lucky and his little brother are being raised in a very humble situation. His father is a casual laborer who has to search for odd jobs, and is the sole provider for the family. Lucky’s mother stays home to care for the children. The household income is meager and they are unable to afford some of the basic needs of their children.
