The shelter needs your support
We are very worried and need your support. All year long we receive many reporters, photographers, investigators, They leave very moved by the daily work that is done in the shelter. From the shelter have come photographs, books, a movie, documentaries that are premiered in other parts of the world. What does this help the sick migrants? How have they benefited? We make so much publicity with another's shame in order to move people throughout the world but in reality, we are running the risk of closing the shelter. In Tapachula, the rains are very strong, The barricades that protect the sick are falling down on both sides due to the construction that these same sick ones built. The walls, the roof, and the floor are filled with water. We only have promises but we can't live on promises. While everyone plans, we work day after day without rest. Every day the shelter takes on more responsibility, more areas of help. Every day the shelter guarantees the sick protection, food and a place to sleep. For the shelter, the primary thing is to provide the support necessary and later comes the talk. .The shelter does not receive any economic support from any country, or any non-profit. We continue to be sustained by the sale of donuts, bread, sales at flea market and the hard work of Senora Olga. This week we paid for 2 operations at the regional hospital of more than 20,000 pesos. We continue to receive persons from all parts of the world. Two weeks ago, a person from the United States left. He had been at the shelter more than 7 months. We also had a Canadian who was in the hospital in 2009 after a stroke. He was here 8 months with us, without being able to talk, incapable of eating alone, unable to walk and with loss of memory. Now he speaks, is able to talk and feed himself and this month took his first steps. The Canadian embassy is now looking for his family. In February, 2010, we had a French man that was assaulted. We took him into the shelter and located his girlfriend to come for him. This man was vacationing in Tapachula. On Sundays when we sell bread at the church in the center, we often ask the tourist to buy from us and they never buy it, never imagining that they could end up needing help from the shelter.This is a clear example that we every human being is going to have needs and that the shelter will be there for everyone without distinction. The shelter needs you to support us with cash, today, little or a lot. In order for us to continue working. We want to be the link between you and what is needed. How can you help us?
