This image of a 9-year-old Filipino boy attempting to do homework in the street, under the dim light of a nearby McDonald’s, has prompted an international outpouring of donations.

“We’re overjoyed,” said his stunned mother Christina Espinosa, a grocery store worker who makes less than $2 a day. “I don’t know what I will do with all of these blessings.”

The photo of the diligent student, Daniel Cabrera, went viral shortly after a passerby posted an image of him on Facebook last moth. The image was shared nearly 7,000 times. The family had received schoolbooks, clothing, a reading lamp and a college scholarship fund.

Espinosa described her son as “studious” and determined to obtain an advanced degree.

“He would insist on going to school even without his lunch money because I have no money to give,” Espinosa said.

Joyce Torrefranca, the young woman who posted the photo, is touched that her simple photo made such a difference.
