Jeremiah's dream is within grasp through World Vision's youth empowerment project
Jeremiah's childhood was marked by the absence of parental figures. Abandoned by both his father and mother, he found refuge in another family in Morobe. However, formal education only lasted until Grade 3, and he soon found himself navigating the unforgiving streets of Lae, resorting to collecting containers and engaging in petty theft to survive.
Everything changed when the RYRNYSW Project reached Bumbu. Jeremiah saw it as a lifeline, an opportunity to break the cycle of poverty through skills development. Despite initial hesitation from some friends, he actively participated in the project's various modules, discovering a passion for driving. Recognising the importance of work in shaping his future, Jeremiah identified driving as a skill that could open doors for employment.
