A hardworking 12-year-old boy from Georgia is spending his summer earning some extra cash for his family—who need a helping hand—and for school supplies ahead of the next semester.

Jayden Jackson, the second oldest of his five siblings, attends Truth Spring Academy in Columbus, Georgia. Jayden’s mom, 42-year-old Angel, has lupus and is cared for at home by her husband of 15 years.
