After the loss of her husband, Jordan's mother has faced the daunting task of single-handedly raising her two children under challenging circumstances. Struggling to provide even the most basic needs, including meals, her plight as a single parent is a daily battle against poverty and uncertainty.
In her determination to sustain her family, she engages in small-scale farming, cultivating crops on a tiny parcel of land while also trying her hand at small business by selling fried chicken in the town centers. Although the yield from her farming efforts primarily ensures their subsistence, occasionally, a modest surplus allows her to purchase essential household items. Yet, despite her relentless efforts, affording school tuition for Jordan and his brother remains an insurmountable challenge.
Jordan, an excited and adventurous student, dreams of becoming a pilot—a dream that seems increasingly unattainable given his family's financial constraints. Recognizing the potential in her son and the critical importance of education in securing a better future, his mother has sought assistance from CARITAS For Children, hopeful that support will pave the way for Jordan to realize his aspirations and break the cycle of poverty that constrains them.
