Nelson is a twin brother and has been raised by his grandmother since their mother left two years ago to look for work and never returned. Their father is unknown. His grandmother supports Nelson and his siblings by washing clothes for other households when work is available. They live in an old, mud-walled house in a slum area in poor condition, affected by flooding. The income she earns is less than $1 a day. Nelson remains eager to stay in school and continue learning in hope of a brighter future.
