Riduyan Sheikh
(Kapasia, Gazipur)
Riduyan is an exceptionally bright student who consistently ranks first in his class. His elder sister is also a dedicated student, and together they make their parents and teachers proud. Everyone around Riduyan holds high hopes for his future. But behind his academic success lies a life full of challenges. His father works as a day laborer on other people’s land, earning a meager income only when work is available. This uncertain and limited income makes it increasingly difficult to support the family, especially with the growing cost of sending two children to school. Living in a rural village, Riduyan’s mother has no opportunity to earn and support the household. As a result, the burden of education expenses falls solely on his father, who is struggling to keep up. A sponsorship can change everything. It can ensure Riduyan continues his education and reaches the great potential he holds, without being held back by poverty.
