Just in case any of you want to see what you are trying to help...here is a link to my blog from March.
http://texastrip2014.blogspot.ca/
as well as a slideshow from previous years. The blog runs from last in April backwards to the beginning.
We walk over the bridge ourselves, or we go with a nun and a couple that help her. The nun and the couple go over three times a week to help the needy families and to ensure as many kids as possible go to school so they are not begging on the streets. It is working as a lot of kids get sponsored.
Our family is living in a house which had been shot up by the cartel, and which they are not really supposed to be living in at this point, as their dentist friend who lives kiddie corner in his own house arranged it as temporary quarters for them, as they had to live their shack, as the owner wanted it back. Karelly uses the dentist wifi and stands outside.
The owner of this upscale development had great plans for it, but his two daughters got shot, so he basically abandoned it. There are only about 6 or 7 houses, but all the streets are paved, with water lines and electricity in. Apparently he lives somewhere in the US now, but no one really seems to know where.
Our goal is to try and get Educational Visas for the girls, so they can be educated further on the US side, so they have every chance in life to be whatever they want to be. Mom encourages that!
