00:00A 10-year-old boy in Laguna Lake is fishing and catching crabs.
00:10In this part of Laguna Lake, this 10-year-old boy is fishing.
00:23He's not fishing here, but he's catching and selling crabs.
00:31He's earning money to buy school supplies for this school year.
00:36I don't have school supplies yet. I don't have money to buy.
00:41He's very careful when he's fishing.
00:53In the middle of their crab fishing, it suddenly started to rain.
01:01It's raining.
01:04His fishing rod is strong enough to carry his family.
01:10I want to be a fisherman.
01:30This Wednesday, at Lorenz' house in Baras, Rizal, the boy has already given birth.
01:46His mother, Lizelle, and his stepfather, Denmark, were with him that morning.
01:53This is our house by the sea. This is where we have our lunch and breakfast.
02:00This is where we have our water.
02:06Riding a motorboat, they headed to the shore where there are many crabs on their boat.
02:13The three small boats are tied together, which they call Bokaboka.
02:18I moved to a smaller boat so that I can fish.
02:21This is a big boat because mine is small.
02:26I'm wearing a jacket because it's hot.
02:29Before we went fishing, this is where we would eat before we fish.
02:33This is where we would eat before we fish.
02:36Because of the thick fog, it was difficult for them to fish.
02:42This is where we would eat before we fish.
02:50Because of the thick fog, it was difficult for them to fish.
03:12I'm tired.
03:20Lorenz is still riding a Bokaboka while catching crabs.
03:33But to make it faster, he jumped into the water.
03:38This is where I would let him catch small crabs.
03:42I just want to catch crabs because it's like I'm playing.
03:47When I catch crabs, I catch a lot of small crabs, including mackerels.
03:55My nails hurt when I catch crabs.
04:00The blood gets into my nails.
04:05Lizelle clarified that she doesn't force her son to work.
04:10She cries because I don't want her to be with me.
04:13I don't want my mom to have a hard time.
04:16If I don't have a hard time, I help my mom.
04:20I talk to my mom so that she can help me.
04:26I cry.
04:34I cry when my mom helps me.
04:37I just want her to be with me. I don't want her to be away from me.
04:43Lizelle didn't finish her studies.
04:45That's why her children are living in poverty.
04:49She has four of them.
04:51One of them is in a new relationship.
04:53This is the only job I know.
04:56They earn P200 a day.
05:00How can they afford to raise their family?
05:04That's why Lizelle's fourth child
05:06is with my sister.
05:07I don't know where to get the food that I can give them.
05:13They aim to sell 15 bags of crabs that day.
05:18Each bag will be sold for P20.
05:22I can make P100.
05:25P100.
05:26I can make P500.
05:31But in the middle of their adventure,
05:33the weather suddenly turned bad.
06:01When it started raining,
06:03the five bags of crabs that they caught
06:06were the first to be sold by Lawrence.
06:09I let him go home first.
06:11His siblings don't have anything to eat.
06:31I can do it.
06:39I'm not afraid because I know how to swim.
06:44The five bags of crabs that Lawrence caught
06:47were immediately sold to their customers.
06:52Five crabs for P21.
06:54Five crabs for P20.
06:57Five crabs for P21.
06:59Five crabs for P100.
07:01Thank you.
07:02I'll buy rice and sardines.
07:07He spent P90 for a can of sardines
07:11and a kilo of rice.
07:26He bought a new house,
07:28a new car,
07:30a new house,
07:32and a new house.
07:34He's a man of his word.
07:37He'll take care of his family.
07:42I'll boil the rice so we can soak it in the water.
07:50He's a man of his word.
07:53I'm having a hard time with my situation right now.
08:03I want to study well but I can't do it.
08:11From the amount of P100, only P10 was left.
08:15Lawrence put it aside.
08:17She added to buy her school supplies.
08:24She only has two notebooks.
08:27I only have one lapis.
08:29If I can't afford to buy school supplies,
08:32this is what I will use.
08:34This is what my mom bought for me last year.
08:37This is what my neighbor gave me.
08:40Two.
08:42Lawrence is convinced that education will help her.
08:48That's why she continues to finish her studies.
08:51When I grow up, I want to be a police officer.
08:54When I grow up, I want to be an entrepreneur.
08:58When I grow up, I want to find a job.
09:02Lawrence's story of becoming an entrepreneur
09:05touched the heart of content creator Jun.
09:09I'm having a hard time.
09:11I'm having a hard time.
09:13I'm having a hard time.
09:16I will give this to you.
09:17I will buy your school supplies.
09:18Accept this.
09:19Thank you.
09:20Thank you.
09:21Lawrence is crying.
09:23I know, Lawrence.
09:25Life is hard.
09:26Huh?
09:27Yes.
09:28That's why I decided to get her a video
09:31and vlog her
09:33because I was touched by what I saw in her.
09:35Only 10-year-olds like Lawrence
09:38should enjoy their youth
09:41and be in a school
09:43that gives them a better future.
09:47Surprise!
09:49Surprise!
09:52This Thursday, the local government of Baras
09:55provided groceries and financial assistance
09:58to Lawrence's family.
10:00Here's 10,000 pesos for you to start your business.
10:04Thank you very much.
10:11She will be given 2,000 pesos each year.
10:15They will use it until high school.
10:18Thank you very much for your help.
10:21Our program responded to Lawrence's needs
10:25such as school supplies,
10:27bags,
10:28and her new uniform.
10:32Thank you very much, NDS Park.
