JERRY: S1021-KIA

Jerry is a 9-year-old boy in Kindergarten 2, full of curiosity and intelligence. He lives with his father, two wives, and nine brothers and sisters in a crowded household. Despite his father’s best efforts, the family is financially struggling, and the sheer size of the household makes it difficult for them to meet even the most basic needs. Unfortunately, this means that Jerry, despite his eagerness, cannot regularly attend school, as the family simply cannot afford the fees. Jerry is a very smart child, with a natural thirst for knowledge. His intelligence shines through, but without the opportunity to go to school, he is limited in how much he can learn. He is deeply determined to improve his life, and his dream is to one day become a doctor. Jerry’s hope is that through education, he can break free from the circumstances he was born into and create a better future for himself and his family. Though Jerry faces many obstacles, his resilience and ambition remain unshaken. He continues to hold onto the belief that with the right opportunity, he will be able to pursue his dream of becoming a doctor and use his talents to make a positive impact on the world.
