A little closer to home!

My Friend Vanessa has been searching and searching for her daughter Arriana's birth family since we brought our children home in September. She finally found her with the help of Sharon who lives in Panajachel, Guatemala and runs MayanFamilies.org. Thank you Sharon!

Sharon had given them food and clothing for the children and then sent someone to check out their situation. Well, we have come to find out they live in a make shift house on the side of a cliff. It is very unsafe for her other 5 children. They have NOTHING! No food, running water, beds, blankets, nothing! Vanessa has decided to have a "Buy a Block" Fundraiser through her local church. It will take 600 blocks at $10.00 each to buy a small piece of land and build them a home.

Be aware I will be asking you to buy a block!
Ten dollars, and you can make a drastic change in a families life!
