My Story

Dear Sponsor,

Hello! How are you? I send many greetings for your family and you. I tell you that thank God my whole family and I are in good health. I live with my mother and sister. I only passed my sixth grade because my father did not have enough resources to continue supporting me with my studies. My father is in the United States but he sends us some money to cover our basic needs. I stay at home and I usually collect grass for the cow, grow corn for our consumption and gather firewood to cook. In the afternoons, I watch TV programs and play different games with my cousins. My mother is a busy and hard-working woman because she does many different chores from morning to night. I only have one sister and she helps our mother with all the household chores; she also feeds our domestic animals. My family and I are not attending a church but we are thinking to attend one soon. I love eating fried chicken and I like playing soccer. I thank you for being good people and supporting Living Water. I am sure God will reward you for it.  I say goodbye to you for hoping to have news from you.

With much love

Yoni Maicol Alvarado Gomez
