Jonatan is 34 years old.

He has no legs.

He lost an arm.

But every day, he wakes up to work.

Dragging an improvised cart along a dirt road, Jonatan carries on his back what he can sell: chickens, eggs, corn, milk.

He doesn't beg.

He works.

The money he earns is little. Very little.

But every cent has a clear purpose:

  • try to rebuild his legs and use a prosthetic
  • buy hearing aids for his mother, who lost her hearing

Jonatan sells cheap because in the countryside nobody earns much.

And he can't get to the city.

Even so, he continues.

Jonatan selling eggs

Every Day, He Sells to Survive

Jonatan sets up his small roadside stand with eggs, chickens, and basic goods. Without legs to stand on, he sits on the ground, displaying his products with a simple "FOR SALE" sign. His smile never fades, even though the earnings are barely enough for food.

He raises the chickens himself, collects the eggs, and manages everything alone. Each sale is a victory against the circumstances that tried to break him.

Jonatan receiving help

The Kindness of Strangers Gives Him Hope

Sometimes, compassionate people stop to help Jonatan. They bring food supplies, offer words of encouragement, and shake his hand with genuine respect. These moments remind him that humanity still exists, that his struggle is seen and valued.

But what Jonatan needs most is not charity - it's the ability to work with dignity. Prosthetics would allow him to stand, to walk, to expand his small business. A proper wheelchair would give him mobility and independence.

Jonatan at his home

His Home, His Heart, His Everything

Behind Jonatan's daily sales is a humble dwelling made of wood and corrugated metal. This is where he lives with his mother, who has lost her hearing and depends entirely on him. Despite their poverty, Jonatan keeps fighting because giving up would mean abandoning her.

He loads his cart with everything he can carry - eggs, chickens, grains, milk - and pushes himself forward on a makeshift skateboard, using his remaining arm and core strength to move. The physical toll is immense: infections from ground contact, chronic pain, exhaustion. But Jonatan has a dream: to walk again, to provide better for his mother, to live with dignity.

Your donation can make that dream a reality. Together, we can help Jonatan stand tall again.

โš ๏ธWithout help, Jonatan is at constant risk:
  • ground infections
  • chronic pain
  • falls
  • worsening physical condition
๐Ÿ’ชWith help, he can walk, work with dignity and take care of his mother.
๐Ÿ‘‰ For Jonatan, it's the chance to live with dignity.

"God doesn't abandon those who work with honesty.
He just chooses people to be the way."
