LETTER FROM THE FAMILY:
Dear Homes of Hope, we would like to extend our warmest greetings and sincerely thank you for the opportunity to share our story. We are a family like many others, with good times and difficult times, but we have always remained united and supported one another through every challenge. One of our greatest dreams is to settle in a permanent place that we can call our own, where our children can grow up with stability without having to experience the difficulties of constantly moving and adapting to new surroundings. At the moment, I do not work outside the home because I am caring for our youngest daughter. When my older children were little, I worked, and it was very difficult to balance my job with spending enough time with them, finding someone trustworthy to care for them, and requesting time off whenever they needed me. For this reason, when our youngest daughter was born, my husband and I decided that I would stay home to care for her. However, I still want to contribute to our family's income, so I am currently saving money to purchase the supplies and utensils I need to begin baking and selling cookies and bread to help my husband with our household expenses. We currently live with my in-laws, and although we do not pay rent, we contribute by covering expenses such as electricity, gas, and water. We are very grateful to have a place to live, but we continue dreaming of having a home of our own where our children can have their own space, invite their friends over, enjoy time together, and create special memories. The thought of one day having our own home fills our entire family with excitement and motivates us to continue working hard despite the challenges we face. We trust that God is with us and that, in His perfect timing, this dream can become a reality. Thank you sincerely for taking the time to learn about our family and for considering us for this opportunity. May God always bless you and continue to strengthen the wonderful work you do.
