His independence and creativity continue to grow as he builds skills in product creation and design.
Abraham, Author of Mariam and the White Moon
Abraham wrote a heartfelt book to honor his mother. His book, now self-published, is a meaningful tribute and a source of inspiration for others. As he prepares to share his story through public readings, he is learning to create custom merchandise—including stickers, buttons, and 3D-printed moons—to sell at his events, building both confidence and entrepreneurial skills.
