“My name is Daniel, I live in Alajuelita, I am 20 years old and I first came to FundaVida when I was only eleven. Back then, I was a totally different person, I was a person who needed help. I was doing very bad, I was stuck in all the subjects and I used to sneak out of school.

In addition to that, the situation in my house was not easy at all. I am the son of a single mother, I have a brother and we didn’t have money to pay rent, we didn’t have internet or a phone, we could hardly afford to buy food. This whole environment didn’t motivate me to change, it just made me feel very sad.

It was until a friend told me about FundaVida that everything started to change. At first, I didn’t want to go, but I decided to give it a chance and thank God I did, because that changed my life. I had no idea what I was capable of achieving and all the abilities that I had.

At FundaVida I felt accepted and found a second home. It was not only a place I could trust, but also I was able to develop myself academically and emotionally. Teacher Alvaro and Verónica believed in me and gave me the support I needed at that time.

Today I have a job that for me is like a dream come true. I never thought I would have this opportunity. I work for DXC Technology, running the Microsoft account. I’m sure that the job interview went so well for me because I applied everything, I learned at FundaVida, not only the technical part, but also my soft skills. All this knowledge that I have now will stay with me forever.”
