This is Octavio. He belongs to a needy family. His dad works hard as an employee and earns approximately $8 USD per day. His mom stays at home, taking care of him and doing the house chores. Living on just one low income is difficult. The food prices go high, while the income remains low. These parents struggle to put the food on the table and keep Octavio in good health. They speak Spanish. Octavio is not going to school yet, because hes a baby. They live in a house property of some relatives. Octavios diet basically consists of milk, cereal, chicken broth, some boiled vegetables, tortillas and beans. Although their situation is not ideal, hes thriving. Hes .6 m tall and currently weighs 10 kg. He has already lived his first Christmas and was thrilled by the decorated trees and their lights. With your kind support, Octavio will be early stimulated and his parents will also learn how to do it. Help him discover his skills to become an active member of his community.
