He was supported by World Vision Foundation of Thailand from Grade 4 through the Child Sponsorship Programme, which provided educational assistance, health promotion, a safe and suitable environment, and opportunities to develop life skills. These opportunities became the foundation for his education over the years.<\/p><p>After completing secondary school, Jay enrolled in a two-year short art course at Mae Fah Luang University, but faced the decision of whether to pursue a bachelor\u2019s degree due to the high costs involved.<\/p><p>Eventually, he received a life-changing opportunity\u2014an education fund from the Bachelor\u2019s Degree Programme.<\/p><p><em>\u201cWhen I found out I had received the education fund, I was overjoyed.
