Silvia Nohemy Mendoza Barahona
Homemaker / 42 years old
Silvia lives with her daughter in her parents' house. She is a single mother, and for now, they stay with her parents because her home was destroyed by a storm last winter. The roof collapsed, but fortunately, they were not inside at the time. Her brothers have helped her make some temporary repairs to the roof.
Nathalia Guadalupe Ayala Mendoza
3 years old / Silvia’s Daughter.
Nathalia is excited about starting school for the first time. She loves playing and watching videos on her mother’s phone.
The door of her house is currently holding up the wooden structure of the roof, and if it is opened, the house could collapse entirely. For safety reasons, Silvia and her daughter now live on the porch of her mother’s house. She constantly feels unsafe and worries that something serious might happen during heavy rains. When Silvia received the news about the new house, she was overjoyed. It was something she had been waiting for, and she gave thanks to God and the donors for their generosity and kind hearts.
