Letter from the family:
Hello, first I want to thank you because the way you help people is so beautiful and admirable. Also the devotion with which you do it also really moves my heart. The word that you shared at our orientation when we got the requirements for the house really spoke to my heart.
My husband was in drugs and unfortunately was killed 13 years ago. This really was a hard point in my life. My daughter Aylin was 6 and Sayra was still on the way. It was so painful and very difficult to lose my husband and the father of my children. With God’s help, I was able to keep moving forward because I realized that my daughters really needed me more than ever. They gave me the strength to continue on and I am so thankful to God for allowing me to live to be able to love and protect them.
I decided to start working even right after my youngest daughter was born, and since then I havent stopped working. My daughters are the ones that push me to be a better person and not give up. They look up to me and respect me and that makes me feel better.
In the last 13 years, I have had different jobs, like working nights in a factory and a gas station. Then I decided to start my own business and my daughters felt very proud of me. This way I can dedicate more time to them, which I couldn’t do before. I have not remarried and I have no other financial support from anyone, just my parents helped me take care of my kids. This was a blessing because I could work to support them without worrying that something bad could happen to them.
The main reason I would like a Homes of Hope house is for my daughters to have their own place for our small family. I have faith that this will happen and I am thankful for the opportunity to share with you.
