Meet Paul: A Story of Delivery Cyclist



Paul, a college dropout from Manila, faces significant financial challenges as part of a family of four siblings and low-income parents. Growing up, he watched as two of his siblings continue their studies while he and the eldest stepped up as breadwinners.



Currently working as a delivery cyclist, Paul endures safety risks daily while earning just enough to survive. With a history of health issues like asthma and financial burdens such as unpaid bills and tuition debt, he finds it difficult to secure better employment.



Using an old bike gifted by his brother, Paul dreams of owning a small motorbike to ease his daily burden and enhance his job. However, his finances leave little room for saving. He is reaching out for support, believing that even small contributions can help him pay off his debts and return to college, giving him a chance for a brighter future. Thus, he could use it for his youngest brother for financial education.
