C and her now three year old son W are moving out! I can hardly believe it, but its been almost three years that they have lived with us. They moved in February of 2012 and have been PDE staples ever since. Its going to be so weird to not have them around all the time. Although I'm pretty sure we're going to see a lot of them!
C is still working towards her forestry degree at the local university and working part-time at Pizza Hut. She came to know the Lord at PDE, got involved in the local church, and became part of our family. She is a sweet mom and loves her son fiercely. We are so proud of her and how far she has come!
We have helped other girls after they move out and they all continue to be part of our family. But Carolina is special because we consider her our first "graduate" who actually made it to the point that we are really excited to see her step out on her own. We really think she is ready and we want to support her however we can as she makes this transition.
Over the last three years she has been saving up to have some money to get started, but we want to help with the security deposit on her apartment and some basic furnishings.
As you think about Christmas this year, would you consider putting one of these things on your list and send us money to help her get out on her own? These are approximate costs.
Security Deposit ($100)
Bed ($150)
Stovetop ($60)
Dorm Size Fridge ($150)
Dresser or Closet ($100)
Kitchen needs ($100)
Linens ($30)
In the same way, please keep Puerta de Esperanza in mind for your year-end giving. We still need monthly funding badly, but one-time gifts could help us to get through until I can make a support-raising trip next fall. Here's all the information you need!
