Md. Hossain
(Karail Bowbazar, Dhaka)
Hossain’s life changed forever five years ago when his father was killed in a road accident. Since then, his mother has been the sole provider for the family, working as a domestic helper to raise Hossain and his elder brother on her own. Hossain’s elder brother is about to move up to Class 9. Alongside his studies, he is learning to repair elevators and earns a small amount of pocket money from this work. He uses this money to try to support his own education, as their mother’s limited income is not enough to cover house rent, food, and the education expenses of both sons. Although their mother helps whenever she can, her earnings are very restricted and often fall short. Despite their efforts, managing Hossain’s education has become especially difficult. With no relatives to support them, the family depends entirely on their mother’s hard work and determination. Still, she continues to do everything in her power to ensure that Hossain can stay in school and build a better future. A sponsorship for Hossain would bring stability to his education and support his mother’s tireless efforts to secure a better future for her sons.
