In the bustling slums of Alkareem, Kakamega, lives Ali Mohamed Faraj, from a young age, he knew the weight of poverty. He left school after just class seven to help his family, tak ing on various odd jobs to make ends meet. A turning point came when he obtained a driver's license, which secured him a stable job as a bus driver, a role he held for decades and which provided for his family. However, in 2017, tragedy struck. Ali was involved in a severe accident that shattered his collarbone and injured his back. The injuries were so debilitating that they forced him to stop working.
