Letter from the family: We are a family of seven, my five children, my wife and myself. We arrived in 2017,fleeing from Honduras, were my brother was killed, my youngest sister was present when he was killed at that same moment they took her and told her that they were going to start killing all the family, she was able to make it home and ran to tell us, so that same day we fled. We requested Mexico for political asylum, due that all our life and family was endangered.
Since day one in Tijuana we tried to look for any help possible to help my family, but sadly we haven’t been able to achieve a lot because I can’t find a steady job since I only went to school until 3rd grade. The only job I have at this moment is going out with the neighbors to help them in anything they need and mostly I get a one or two days job making a total of 200 pesos (10 dollars a week.)
My children weren’t able to enroll into school this year because we moved to our land and there was no space for them in the school that is near our land.
I want my children to get an education and help them have a better life, because not being able to go to school as myself and my wife that never attended, it just makes life hard on all.
By getting this new home and opportunity will help me focus on raising my children and my wife taking care of them, not being worried that when it rains we get soaking wet inside our house and the little we have gets ruined by the water.
Having a home will make me feel at peace to make sure that my family is safe and make sure that my children are able to go to school. I really want to improve my family’s situation since it is really embarrassing to have to take my child to help me read or write in anything that I need in order to work and with any job that I might get be able to buy school supplies for my children as well and just to make sure that I meet their basic needs as a happy family that we are like food, safety and shelter.
