After the end of the school schedule, it is easy to find José Daniel Samón Vicente in a space very close to his apartment in the Reparto 2 de Diciembre, in Cárdenas. The 14-year-old teenager and student of the Víctimas de La Coubre basic secondary school, in recent weeks has been very motivated with the work of preparing a land that was in very bad condition.
He confesses that there was a lot of weeds and marabou and the soil was quite battered, but in a short time he transformed it.
The 9th grader has the support of his parents and sometimes the support of Yenniel Alderete, a classmate
Every afternoon before homework, José Daniel gets involved in this task that, according to his parents, he takes very seriously, and to the work on the land he adds the attention to his curieles and rabbit
Despite his young age and inexperience, José Daniel shows that there are no obstacles when interest and desire to do prevail. The actions of the teenager from Cárdenas today set an example for family members and neighbors, who see the boy with pride.
