Occupation and Salary - Jacinto sells milk, and Rosa washes laundry. They receive $150 monthly from the government. Gabriela receives $20 monthly from the father of one of her children to help support her.
Our Story - The family lives together in a dilapidated house in Chone that is at great risk of collapse. It is built out of wood and cane and had formerly belonged to Jacinto's family. Jacinto inherited the house, and this has caused much tension between him and his brothers.
Also he used to make money selling milk, Jacinto has been struggling to support his family since the pandemic hit. The price of milk has risen so much that they make no profit. The fathers of Gabriela's children have offered them no support either, except for one of them who sends $20 occasionally. Her children are enrolled in virtual school currently.
Both Rosa and Jacinto suffer from ailing health and have no money to seek out treatment.
What Your Sponsorship Provides
When you sponsor a family in Ecuador, your donation supports a monthly gift of food and basic hygiene and cleaning products for the family. These families are very impoverished and what little income they have is not enough to buy the basic necessities. Families will also receive monthly visits from volunteers and the Servant Sisters of the Home of the Mother who not only look after their physical needs but also their spiritual needs. Any additional funds given beyond the minimum $37 per month will provide other necessities as needed, such as home repairs or basic home utensils. Additional donations can be made here.
What You'll Receive
As a sponsor, you will receive a newsletter with general updates from our communities in India and Ecuador as well as a letter from your adopted child 3 times per year: Easter, early fall and Christmas. We also encourage you to send letters or cards to your adopted child by creating and logging into your account on our website.
