Today’s update: The heartfelt, hopeful and hard reality of this devastation in the words of a beautiful and gracious mama I’ve had the privilege of getting to know.
Every family wants to move into a new space but nearly all of the affordable housing was decimated. In addition to losing everything, families remain in unsettling limbo.
From Miriam:
Hello Silvia we continue to wait for generous and truly humanitarian people like you to achieve our purposes to get a stable and safe new home for our families is that you and your Donators are doing it Thank you very much is that it is very desperate how you feel very out one of place days like today I wake up really sad and I start crying and wish that this had not happened that our children had already taken up their classes and each with their lives For my part I know that for now I live waiting for a miracle like every family who live the same feeling.
