Family History

Maria is from Cd. Constitución BCS that is about 16 hours away from Ensenada and met her husband there, after they had their son Guillermo they moved to Ensenada looking for a job and a better life. 

While living in Ensenada they would work in a farm but eventually they had to move somewhere closer to the city to allow the kids to go to school. They would rent a little room for 2,000 - 2,400 pesos and they would look for a cheaper place to live. 2 years ago Maria’s husband left because he was being unfaithful so Maria left him. Maria’s boss helped her to find property and the owner told her she could pay in payments. Maria and her son Luis built the room with some wood they got for free. At the moment Luis doesn’t live with her, he’s married and he’s actually in the process to get a Home of Hope. 

The dad doesn’t really help financially unless Maria gets sick and she's not able to work, he sends money for food so her daughters can eat. The daughters don’t go to school due to the lack of money so they go to work with her mom. Maria desires a home so her daughters can live in better conditions.

Family History

Anselma was born in Oaxaca and Eugenio is from Guerrero, when they were young both of their families moved to Ensenada. Anselma has 4 kids, Dayani and Ernesto born in Tijuana while Carlos and Uziel were born in Ensenada. 

Eugenio is not their biological dad, when they met she already had her four children and was a single mother due to the father cheating on her so she left and lived with her mom for a while in Ensenada and the dad doesn't help financially. Anselma met Eugenio when they both worked selling bracelets on the beach and they eventually moved in together. 

Eventually they decided to buy property and a friend of Anselma’s mom in church told her about some property that someone was selling and they talked and got it. They have been living 6 months in their new property but it has been hard to make a living because of Covid, every week they pay 60 pesos to buy water and they have a small solar panel for electricity. 

Eugenio stills sells bracelets and works 3-5 days a week and depending on the day he makes 200 - 300 hundred pesos, due to Covid he hasn't been selling as much. Anselma stays home to take care of the kids but in summer she helps to sell as well. They want a home to have a better place to live due to the fact that they have no money to build one by themselves.

Rosa decided to come with her two children to Ensenada (she was living in Mexicali again). 

Omar is from Sinaloa and he came to Ensenada looking for a job and there he met Rosa, working together. They had together their son Jacob and went to live in San Felipe for a short time, but came back to Ensenada after 3 years due to Omar finding a job where they could live on the farm where he was working. But after a while they left because of how strict it was to live there. 

They found some property that they could buy with the help of a group that loans money, but before they moved there they had to work on their property because it was not plain. 

At the moment they've been living there for 3 years, Omar works in a farm and Rosa works with her mom making tortillas. They want a home to have a safe place to live and bigger because it's tight where they live.

They haven’t heard from him for a while and he doesn’t help them either so Enedina takes care of everything. She works packaging with a salary of $1,500 mxn a week. 

Enedina got the property thanks to a neighbor that told her that there was some property available for payments. When she bought it there was a small room there but not in good condition.

She couldn’t find a job until she found a family that gave her a place to stay, eat and work. She worked for them for 8 years. That family had to move to another city so she had to find somewhere else to work and where to live. 

She met a man that is Karim’s father and after a while they moved together and she got pregnant, he didn’t want a kid so he decided to leave them alone. All this time she has been taking care of them both by herself. 

When Edna was 18 she decided to bring her 9 year old brother to live with her, (Jairo) went to school and got married. He is currently married to Jasmin and has a kid named Michael. 

A year ago they found out that Jairo has a Chronic Renal Insufficiency so he needs a kidney transplant so he 's not able to work right now. So it happens that Edna is actually 99.9% compatible and she decided to donate a kidney to his brother.  Due to COVID they had to wait a little bit for all this. Jairo’s wife stopped working to help her husband. 

They need a home for a better living style and to have a place to get better for surgery but due to the lack of money they are not able to build one for themselves.
