The story of Saman
Saman came to the Netherlands and, despite challenging circumstances, adapted to his new life. He worked hard to successfully complete Dutch language courses and obtained a diploma in Installation Technology.
Initially, his job searches were unsuccessful. After several attempts, the reason became clear: he didn't have a driver's license, often a requirement for technical work on-site. The lack of a driver's license posed a barrier in his job search.
Now, Saman is extremely grateful for a new opportunity provided by Everyday Heroes to obtain a driver's license. Upon obtaining his license, he can immediately start working or pursue a level 2 BBL (work and study) training to further enhance his skills. These opportunities have reignited his hope and enthusiasm.
