Celina Marisol Mejia Herrera
40 years old / Farmer
Cecilia works every day from 4:00 AM till noon, and she also has to take care of her children.
They have been living in this house for 3 years, as they moved in with her mother, Isabel, along with her ex-partner, who helped them build the house. The metal sheets for the roof were given to them, though some were quite damaged, but they helped provide a place where they could store their belongings. The lot belongs to a relative of her mother, who allowed them to live there.

Due to the rains, they’ve had to keep their things raised or keep the beds higher to prevent them from getting damaged by the water, they face many hardships, one of them is the fear that something might happen to them when it rains, due to the bad condition of the house.
“I felt really happy when I heard the news about the house, this is not only a blessing for me but also for my family, now we’ll be more at ease during the rainy season”.
