Letter from the family:
Hello Homes of Hope: the motive I write this letter is to explain my situation in this moment; Everything started two years ago when my husband and I wanted to have our own house, but I realized I was a pregnant. We decided that the money received for my disability insurance was for a down payment for the land also we wanted to give 100 dollars but we couldn’t because our little daughter died and he payed funeral expenses, after 18 my dad died too. They were very difficult days and with a lot of suffering, everything we work for almost lost it. But then my sister in law came with a economic plan because she knew about our project that is our house, she helped us to finish the down payment for our house. So I’m asking for another down payment so I can build a room and a bathroom, we couldn’t make a bathroom because of the pandemic and we needed to take care a lot the money, in that time my husband and I lost our jobs for 3 months. When everything started to look better, my husband had an accident and hurt his right leg so he couldn’t work for more months. Our family only had my salary to live and we needed to pay the land, so I went to the offices and I exposed my situation and we get to an agreement. But after everything is getting better again, I have the news that I’m pregnant again, that for me was a big surprise and after the lost of my little girl Alondra I decided to get a surgery to not have more kids; But I was 5 months pregnant now. So all the money that I received for my pregnancy was given to the payments of the land so now I’m not behind. We live in only one room with 4 kids and I want to give to them a better future where they can feel secure and comfortable. Right now we are living with only one salary because right now I’m “vulnerable” for my job. I would like if you can help me with a house, because when it’s windy it’s so cold inside because we don’t have a good roof everywhere because of lack the of money. Thank you so much for respond to our calling Homes of Home. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, to help a family to build a house and more than a house a home were we are going to feel happy and secure. Atte: Fam Zepeda Vega
