Letter from the family:
Hello, we are the Vazquez Cruz family. We are originally from Oaxaca in Southern Mexico. 4 years ago we moved to Baja California. Everything started when my husband couldn’t find good work in Oaxaca so he decided to try and come to Northern Mexico with the hope to cross into the United States. He tried several times to cross but was unsuccessful. While that was happening, I found work taking care of chickens and my payment was eggs so that we could eat. They were terribly difficult times. The last time my husband tried to cross he was injured and decided to stay in Northern Mexico. He brought myself and our two sons up here so that we could seek a better life together. A man let us borrow a small room to live in but it doesn’t have a roof- he also loaned us a small car we can sleep in. We finally were able to save money and put a down payment on a piece of land which is where we are currently living. We hope and pray that we can be considered for a Homes of Hope house. Thank you for reading our letter, blessings.
