Maria Laura’s Journey

Imagine moving to a new country, not knowing anyone, not understanding the language, not having a sense of belonging or community, and in need of healthcare assistance. This is the story of Maria Laura Monachesi. In the pursuit of the American dream, Maria Laura was driven by a vision of a brighter future for herself and her loved ones. Her story highlights the transformative power of community support and serves as a true testament to human strength, resilience, determination, and most of all, hope.

Jairo’s Journey

Almost three years ago, Jairo Villanueva, an immigrant from Honduras, embarked on a life-altering journey to the United States. His dream was to build a brighter future for himself and, most importantly, for his children. He arrived in Houston with the help of a friend’s mother who helped him get back on his feet. After establishing himself in Houston, he decided to move to Charlotte, where he continued working hard and saving money.

Pedro’s Journey

Pedro and his family left their home country of Venezuela to find a better future for their two young daughters. Along the way, they faced many hardships, survived the jungle, and fought off kidnappers. After a dangerous year-long journey, they finally made it to the United States. Now, Pedro, Alejandra, Mikol, and Sara, have stability, a home, and above all—HOPE. Today, we have been able to serve 332 immigrants, with similar stories to Pedro’s, through impactful donations from generous people like you.
