Since we met Erika in January of 2018, a lot has changed. She is making enough money to support her oldest son Fernando (16). He lives with her now – something Erika never dreamed was possible!
“My dream has always been for my sons to be happy. I want to support Fernando to follow his dreams to play soccer and become an engineer. My other son wants to be a bus driver, so maybe I’ll have one engineer and one bus driver,” Erika said with a smile.
Last year Fernando was accepted into one of the most prestigious high schools in Cusco where he is working hard to pursue his dream of being an engineer. He also was invited to join a club soccer league. While Erika works day and night to provide for her family, the money she makes is only enough to cover their basic needs. At this point she cannot afford to pay Fernando’s school and soccer fees.
This is where our love comes in!
Erika, you are not alone. We stand with you. Your burdens are our burdens. Your dreams are our dreams. Your sons are our sons.
A simple donation (one-time or monthly) lets Erika know we stand with her. Let’s lift her load and help this mom-trepreneur–with her big heart and strong fight–spend less time working and more time with her beautiful sons.
$3000 can cover Fernando’s fees for his final two years of high school and give Erika the encouragement she needs to move forward.
Donate HERE and apply your donation to “Fernando’s Soccer and School Fund.” Also, please share Erika’s story and our goal with other friends that might want to support. Any amount (monthly or one-time) will go a long way in changing this family’s life!
