MARTIN: S1033-GBO

Martin is 9 years old and in the second grade. He lives with his parents and his six siblings. Martin’s parents work tirelessly to make charcoal, earning about $40 a month from their business. Unfortunately, this income is not enough to cover the family’s basic needs or consistently send the children to school. Despite these challenges, Martin is full of hope and ambition. He dreams of becoming a police officer when he grows up, inspired by his desire to protect and serve his community. Sponsored by: Lori Kilstrom Higgins
