The story

From an early age, I learned that life requires strength, responsibility, and hard work. My father was a construction worker, and he passed away when I was only 11 years old. My mother is an elementary school teacher, and after losing my father, she faced many difficulties while raising our family. Our financial situation was never easy, but we always had food on the table. Growing up, I learned the value of hard work and independence. Everything I have achieved so far has been the result of my own efforts. I studied, earned a degree in Mechanical Engineering, completed a postgraduate degree, and now work to build a better future for myself. I have never been someone who asks others for money or financial help. Today, I have a job, pay my own bills, and take responsibility for my life. However, there is a dream that seems increasingly difficult to achieve when I look at my finances: traveling the world and having the opportunity to spend more time with my brother, who lives in another country. I don’t want to stop working, and I don’t expect anyone else to take responsibility for my life. I have regular expenses and financial commitments that I need to take care of. Even though I work hard, save money, and do my best to set something aside every month, I have realized that achieving this dream with my salary alone would be extremely difficult. That is why I decided to do something I have never done before: ask for help. This is not easy for me. I have always been used to achieving things through my own hard work, but I have come to understand that accepting help can also be an opportunity to make something meaningful happen, something that might otherwise take many years to achieve on my own. My dream is to visit different countries, discover new cultures and places, experience things I have always imagined, and most importantly, have more opportunities to be close to my brother. After all, time with the people we love is something we can never get back. Any contribution, no matter how small, would mean a lot to me and bring me one step closer to this dream. If you are unable to contribute financially, sharing my story would also be a wonderful way to help. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and learn a little about me.

  • Trusting God with a big dream while still showing up for work takes faith. Hoping the path to your brother and to new horizons opens up soon.

      Wanting to see more of the world and more of your brother is a warm, human dream, and building toward it honestly from your own work is admirable. Hoping the distance between you two grows shorter.

      • You are studying, working and recovering all at the same time, and that is not small. Praying the deadline is met without adding more strain.

        • Building a career and a stable life through your own effort after losing your father young is no small thing. May the trip to your brother and the wider world become possible in a way that feels joyful, not strained.

          • The death of your father when you were eleven shaped how hard you have worked since. Hoping the way to your brother shortens sooner than your salary alone would allow.
