Letter from the family: Hola somos La Familia Magdaleno López I am laurenza I have 18 years living in Tijuana I am from Michoacan my husband born in Tijuana, he is 26 years old. I am 24 years old. Our Lives together start the 24th of November of 2014 and June 2015 we decide to get married. We lived with his parents for 8 months. We both were working in different jobs. After a while we started working in the same place. When I got pregnant I was working at night so I decided that I was going to stop working. In December my first child was born. After 5 months we decided to buy a property. We started saving for the down payment and it was really hard for the last 2 years. It has been too hard because we need to pay our property, rent milk and diapers for the kid. Sometimes my family helps us to buy food. When we bought our property we knew about homes of Hope because our neighbors received a house.

Letter from the family:

Hello, I am writing to you to ask for your help in building a house. We are asking for your help because they have already asked us for the house we are living in and we do not have the money to build one ourselves, or to pay rent. Before the pandemic my husband and I worked and with the help of a relative, we did not pay rent. Thank God we were able to save some money to pay a down payment on a piece of land and cover the monthly payments with the 2 salaries, but due to the current situation of the pandemic they closed the daycare center where my daughter was staying and I had to quit my job. Now, we are left with one job that is only enough to cover the monthly payments since they are very high. but we make every effort to keep paying and not lose our property. Currently my sister gave us the opportunity to live with her in a small room that she made on our land since she does not have one of her own and in that way we help each other. We would be very grateful if you would take us into account.

Letter from the family:

I would like to receive help from you to build my house. You already help my neighbors and it is incredible that there are people that care for others. It is difficult for us to start from zero on our property, because we don’t have anything. We are a big family and our income is not sufficient and our small house is crowded, the wind goes inside, the same with the rain. Our floor is dirty. When it is summer time it is so hot and with no windows. I’m from Nayarit, I lived in Acapulco for 6 years with the father of my kids but moved to tijuana because of domestic violence. My oldest daughter just turned 18 and she is starting to work so she can pay her school fees. When I was a child my parents tent in a lot of places for many years, I didn't want that for my kids. My God bless you for your great heart to help others.
