Kevin is a quiet, friendly and joyful boy who likes to play with cars. He grows up in the city of Oruro, western Bolivia, which is famous for its colorful carnival. With limited resources, he enjoys basic activities that pique his interest and imagination. He attends primary school and likes his sports classes. He lives with his parents and 3 siblings in a small house made of adobe walls and corrugated metal roof. His father earns a living as a bricklayer, while his mother takes care of the home. The family makes around US $ 247.00 per month. The income that the family receives is minimal and insufficient to meet all of their basic family needs. Poverty is a daily reality that most Bolivian children face throughout their childhood, as they do not have enough resources to thrive. The story of this child can follow the same pattern if we do not do something to change it.
