Rama, a single mother from Bogor Regency, West Java, shared her heartfelt experience with Sekolah Rakyat, a tuition-free boarding school that has made a significant impact on her son’s life. For Rama, the school is not just a place of education but also a safe haven where her son, Ridwan, is treated with kindness, care, and respect.
Struggling to make ends meet after her first husband passed away, Rama found hope when Ridwan was selected for the fully funded residential education program at Sekolah Rakyat. Despite initial hesitation, she decided to enroll her son after learning that the school would not cost anything. Witnessing the discipline, cleanliness, and attention given to her child at the school, Rama was deeply grateful for the opportunity that came to them at a time of need.
Ridwan, who had previously faced bullying and reluctance to attend school, now flourishes in this supportive environment. Rama expressed her wishes for her son to succeed and grow into a successful individual, despite their challenging circumstances. She extended her heartfelt gratitude to President Prabowo Subianto and all those involved in the program for providing hope to families like hers.
Through Sekolah Rakyat, Ridwan has not only received an education but has also regained his self-worth, while Rama has found renewed hope for the future. The story of Rama and Ridwan reflects the impactful changes that can occur when the government extends support and care to its most vulnerable citizens.
