Seven years ago, young Keperluan was left with the Baptis Orphanage at the tender age of 5 years,leaving an indelible mark on his life, without the closeness of a warm family upbringing. His family was too poor to raise him and his three younger siblings and decided to place all of them at the same orphanage. His father was the sole breadwinner eking out a living as a laborer while his mother is a full time home maker.
His sad soulful eyes speak volumes of growing up in an orphanage. However, keperluan is determined to better his life by putting his effort into his studies. Keperluan has been receiving assistance from BIC since 2003 when he was merely 5 years old at Baptis orphanage. Through the years, BIC has helped to pay his school fees, and provide food and lodging. Keperluan is now in high school and hopes to fulfill his dreams of a better life and giving back to society.
“I am very happy and thankful that BIC has taken good care of me and provided me with education and knowledge “he said. “I hope BIC can continue to help me to achieve my goals become a soldier so that I can be useful person and give back to society “.
