CEBU CITY, Philippines – Help came for Cebuano wonderboy Daniel Cabrera since 2015, when a photo of him studying outside a fastfood chain [1] to take advantage of free electricity, went viral.

He has graduated from grade school and, on Thursday afternoon, May 16, guess where he held his graduation party? This time, inside the restaurant – at McDonald’s North Reclamation branch in Mandaue City.

CEBU CITY, Philippines – Help came for Cebuano wonderboy Daniel Cabrera since 2015, when a photo of him studying outside a fastfood chain[1] to take advantage of free electricity, went viral.

He has graduated from grade school and, on Thursday afternoon, May 16, guess where he held his graduation party? This time, inside the restaurant – at McDonald’s North Reclamation branch in Mandaue City.

Daniel, now 13 years old, graduated from the Subangdaku Elementary School last April 3. He will be moving up to grade 7 in June.(READ: #InspireCourage: The education of Daniel Cabrera)[2]

“To celebrate Daniel’s achievements, McDonald’s Philippines, through its charity of choice, Ronald McDonald House of Charities (RMHC), treated him to a graduation party in McDonald’s North Reclamation, Cebu – the same branch where Daniel was snapped by Joyce Torrefranca studying.” The RMHC press statement said. (WATCH: McDonald's ad features Cebu street boy's story[3])

RMHC has been supporting Daniel by providing him with allowance, school supplies, and uniform. (READ: Cebu street child story gets UN education envoy’s attention)[4]

Daniel said before that he wanted to be a cop someday[5], and the Philippine National Police pledged to help support his studies when that time comes.

When asked why he wanted to be a cop, Daniel told Rappler that it was his father’s dream to be one. Because his father is gone, for almost 7 years now, he wants the dream of his father to live on.

He said his life changed so much after his photo went viral. “Sauna kay wa mi suga, maglisod kog tuon, karon daghan kaayo ni tabang nako, dili nako magka lisod,” Daniel said. (Before we didn’t have electricity, studying is a struggle, now a lot of people help us, I don’t have a hard time anymore.)

Father Melo Diola, chairman of the Dilaab Foundation[6] Incorporated, pays for the family's monthly rent.

Daniel said his dream, aside from being a policeman, is for his family to have their own house and never go hungry again.

Below are some photos of his graduation party:

(UPDATED) Under the lights of a nearby fast food restaurant, the young boy diligently works on his homework

Do you remember this photo of a 9-year-old boy doing whatever it takes to do his homework...despite being homeless and without electricity? Meet Daniel Cabrera who lives in Cebu City, Philippines. A McDonald’s manager explained that Daniel, his 7-year-old brother Gabriel beg for food outside the establishment. Sometimes, they have to sleep in a nearby food stall where his mother works. The boys do their homework using a makeshift bench and light illuminating from the restaurant. McDonald’s encourage the studious boys with toys as rewards for getting “star” paper as well as providing water when they need it. Daniel became a worldwide inspiration when his picture was taken by a university student passerby who posted on Facebook. Thanks to the photo going viral, Daniel was flooded with donation aid in cash, school supplies, and a college scholarship. All this help will surely help him achieve his dream to become a policeman and escape from poverty

So I’m pretty sure you all may have seen this picture making the rounds on Tumblr.

This is Daniel Cabrera.  He is a Filipino boy who’s determined to continue studying, even as his Mom tries to raise him and his siblings on her meager earnings of P80.00 per day.  That’s about USD$1.73.  Fifty Philippine pesos can get you a chicken fillet with rice meal in our local McDonald’s.  That’s a small piece of chicken fillet with a small cup of rice and a regular soft drink.  If you want fries with that, it’s going to be a little more.  Probably eighty or so pesos. 

Daniel’s studying by the light of a nearby McDonald’s.  The staff have promised him and his siblings toys if they come up and show them their school papers with a “star” on it.  They try to help this family as best they can. 

Daniel wants to be a policeman when he grows up.  He says it’s because he wants to help his country.  God only knows we need all the actual, good, upstanding cops we can get - the ones who really want to protect and serve.

And so, the Mandaue police also ended up helping him.

But Daniel’s story isn’t new. 

Decades ago, that kid studying by a streetlight was my own mother. 

She grew up poor too and as the eldest among her siblings, she worked and studied hard so she could help her mom send the rest of her siblings to school.  The next older children were the same.  In her day, eighty pesos were riches. 

In Daniel’s life now, that’s barely enough for a filling McDonald’s meal.

So think about Daniel Cabrera and the millions of kids who are just like him.  They don’t just need donations - money and uniforms and books and papers and pens.  They don’t just need laptops and tablets.  They also need a good education in school.  They also need not just to learn facts and figures but get their imaginations working and get their creativity to grow. 

Daniel Cabrera can’t just be a cute, inspiring Facebook or Tumblr picture to post and share.  Think about him and all the kids like him and what we all need to do so we can encourage and help these kids.  With everyone knowing who he is, he’s now one of the lucky ones.  He’s like my mother, who will probably make it through.  But what about the rest?

This is our past and our present.  We have to dream and work towards a better future than this.
