Stories
Every child has a story. A beginning, a middle and an ending. We get them while the opening chapter of their story is being written. If this chapter was fun and exciting and full of joy, they would never come our way. Unfortunately, the children that we serve have an opening chapter that is full of fear, pain, abandonment and hopelessness. We are here to rewrite their story.
We cannot change the past, but we can help them write a new story that is full of joy, love and a hope for a future of limitless possibilities.
Day of the Student
In Mexico we have celebrations for many things. None of them are more important than the Day of the Child and the Day of the Student. This year our caregivers went all out to make sure our kids knew how much they are appreciated and loved. So much fun!
Love Prevails Amid Covid
Covid 19 has caused no end of problems. Lost jobs, businesses, basic freedoms to come and go as we please. It has been hard on everyone. When you are a charity though, it has a different kind of effect. This is the time of year when we do fund-raising events to help support the work we do. One of those mainstay fund-raisers is our annual Cards-for-Charity poker event. It is always a blast and always raises money that is so vital to our operations. This year it was canceled for obvious reasons… but then… something magical happened. The event was sold out before the Covid hit us and most of the participants, donors and sponsors just said, “Keep the money and donate it to the cause”. No event but yet Ara and Claudia (event hosts) were still able to raise over $5400! That is generosity in the time of crisis! Thank you all so much!!
