This month, we will be supporting a child named Putu.

16 years old Putu is in his final year of senior high school in Bangli. He only has one year left until his graduation, so he could earn his high school diploma next year. Putu goes to vocational senior high school of tourism, majoring in hotel accommodation. He interned at the housekeeping department in a resort in his regency earlier this year for six months.

Putu’s hobby is playing futsal, or indoor soccer on a concrete field. Playing sports has been his favorite activity ever since he was a child. That is why he also has futsal club as his extra-curricular activity. Putu’s favorite subject to learn is Bahasa Indonesia.

Putu has a younger sister in primary school.

Putu almost dropped out of school after completing his junior high school since his family is impoverished. They could not, and still cannot, afford his senior high school expenses. Both of his parents are school dropouts. While they wish for Putu to be able to graduate from school and land a good job, they do not have the means to support his dream.

Putu also fervently wishes to be able to graduate from his senior high school. Fortunately, Putu was sponsored for a while, so he could go this far in school, making him as the most educated family member in the family. Unfortunately, his sponsor had to stop and Putu cannot continue his school on his own.

Putu’s drive to go to school is high. He even works as a laborer, accompanying his parents, to earn extra money, so he could afford his meals at school or help his parents afford their living expenses. As a laborer, Putu could only earn around $5 per day, and he does not get to work every day, depending on the demand. Putu aspires to be so successful so he could help his family break free from the cycle of poverty, which has been in his family for generations. However, without a sponsorship, Putu cannot pursue his dream. It will be a shame if Putu has to drop out of school, while he only has one year left.
