Atreyal Ransom’s mother never told him she had vaginal cancer. He thought she had just had the flu until she died one May night, devastating her young son. “A big chunk of my life was gone,” Atreyal recalled. “She was my best friend. I lost my best friend and my mom on the same day.” Her death changed everything, Atreyal said. He stopped paying attention in school. He got in trouble in the classroom. He repeated the 5th grade. But he promised his grandmother and his brother that he would get back on track. He started by returning to the community center, where he used to go after school before his mother returned from work, and received help on his schoolwork. Atreyal also began giving back: He’s since completed over 3,000 hours of service — more than any other volunteer at the center. In June, Atreyal, 19, graduated as valedictorian of his class at Brooklyn’s Liberation Diploma Plus High School, and this semester he started at Borough of Manhattan Community College, where he received a scholarship. @michaelnoblejr took this portrait of Atreyal while on #nytassignment. | @wearebcs, one of the 8 organizations supported by the @ニューヨーク・タイムズ Neediest Cases Fund, provided Atreyal with $500 in gift cards to buy school books, a backpack and new clothes and shoes.
