​Emergency Fund: Relief for the Sanchez Children

In a small village in Solola, Guatemala, our community partner, a dedicated social worker, reached out to ask for sponsorship for the Sanchez children. The Sanchez children, abandoned by their parents, were living in dire conditions. The oldest sister, just 10 years old, was struggling to care for her 5 siblings, and the youngest, a still bottle-fed baby, had been given cold coffee and sugar water to quiet her cries. It’s a heartbreaking situation that no child should have to endure. Thanks to the generosity of individuals like you, we were able to take action. Through social media, we raised funds to support the children’s education for a year. Our community partner was able to find a caring family friend to take them in, and we have been providing them with a monthly supply of food and formula for the baby. Additionally, the children have received the necessary school supplies they need to thrive. I want to express my deepest gratitude to all those who donated, no matter the amount. Your contributions have made a tangible difference in these children’s lives. Every dollar donated has come together to create a fund that will support them for at least a few months as their new foster family adjusts to having 5 more children in their home. Thank you for your kindness and compassion.
