Goals: Our main goal with this proyect is to give the raped,abused and poor children of Suba (a sector of bogota) a new chance to start over and be able to forget the past. The story of this proyect started like 2 years ago when my dad and i went to this little house which belong to a vwry poor couple that even in that "misery" adopted 28 children 2 babies, 3 pregnant teen , 2 raped girls, and the list goes on but this children were happy they achive to forget the past in this loving family... i know it sound really stupid this but is true that was what made my dad and i began to tlk to people yand made that "adoptive" home legal and not only that bue also we started a program that works like this any person willing to pay 60.000 (25 US dollars aprox) pesos a month can "adopt economiclly" one of the 50 children we have now, that person can go and visit the kid love him/her like a child of his own and most important thhat kid has education,food,cloths and entretainment asure for that month!!! andmost importat that child will be sure someone cares about him/her.
