Rayan Arefin Rafan
(Mirpur, Dhaka)
Rafan is a young boy with a bright future ahead, but his family faces immense financial challenges. His father works as a private car driver, and they live in a house rented by the car owner, while his mother works as a maid. Unfortunately, her ability to work is limited due to arthritis and the aftermath of two major surgeries in recent years. With such limited income, Rafan's parents are struggling to manage the costs of both their children's education and his mother’s ongoing medical treatments. Rafan’s older brother is in grade 12, which adds to the pressure of their already tight budget. Meanwhile, Rafan, who is currently in kindergarten, is eager to continue his education, but the rising costs are overwhelming. To make matters more difficult, Rafan had an accident at school last year, injuring his head and requiring treatment. His family had to take out a loan to cover the medical expenses, further straining their financial situation. Despite these hardships, Rafan’s parents remain committed to giving their children the best possible opportunities. A sposnsorship would really ease their hardship and let Rafan have the opportunity make a better future.
