🌄 Urgent Help Needed for a Family in Crisis
One of our dedicated volunteers recently reached out to share the story of a family in their community facing a heartbreaking situation. After falling behind on rent for their small, deteriorating wooden home, the family is now being forced out by the property owners. Despite the volunteer covering two months of payments, the eviction is moving forward.
Even the home they are renting is in terrible condition. The children still smiled for the photos. Bless them!!Â
Maria
and Pope have two small children, who are living on the street as
well. 
With nowhere else to go, the family began building a modest shelter in a remote field using sticks and wood. Unfortunately, they ran out of materials and couldn’t finish it. The volunteer visited the site and witnessed the children out in the street, with no safe place to stay.
This
family urgently needs support to complete their shelter and avoid
homelessness. Any contribution—financial or material—can make a
life-changing difference.
🙏 Thank you for your compassion.
As always, donors in Canada and the USA will receive charitable tax receipts. Though this will be a simple home, it will surely bless the lives of the members of this family. Â
These are before and after photos of a simple home that the Dominican Starfish Foundation built last year. Â
Thank
you to all of our very generous donors!! Â
