Ahmad want to school

PPMK start the education program by giving scholarship to poor children, we got small donation from our private donor to support one student for one year. This year we support one child to start study in elementary school.

We got information from our field officer that there was a child who didn’t able to study because of poverty. With the information we go to the field directly to meet this child and his family.

It’s not too difficult to find his place.  The condition of this family is miserable. We met with his father, Mr. Lasiman , he is around 65 years and Mrs. Sutirah is around  40 years old. Ahmat is the only son and he is 9 years old.

Three of them stay in very small house, it’s very small place (3x3M) and they have nothing inside, all their activity from cooking until sleep are doing  in the same small chamber, so it’s quiet messy chamber.

We ask  Mr. Lasiman ,how much is his income for a month. He works as labor in kotogede cemetery, he is quiet shy to answer our question , he said that his salary is very small, maybe only enough too buy 2 packet of cigarette.  How can they live with that amounts of money?

Presently, we already send Ahmat to study in SD kepuhan,jombor, Sewon ,Bantul

This school located very close from his place, so he can go to school by himself
