Childrens House of Hope
Donation protected
What do you do when you get cold? Do you cover yourself up with blankets? Do you put on a comfy sweater? Perhaps hop in your nice warm bed?
It's getting colder and will keep getting colder as the season progresses. For most of us, the winter season means spending the holidays with family and taking out our fashionable warm wardrobes. Unfortunately, many children don't enjoy the same warm festive feeling of winter as we do. Right now there are upwards of 30k children without sweaters, without blankets, without beds, and some without their families. I regularly see children sleeping on the floor, in tents, and without enough shelter. Children who are suffering through their parent's heartbreaking decisions or because of a government system that has failed them. I have seen many children in difficult conditions that remain trapped in a system that isn't designed to address their basic needs.There are no programs for the impoverished like in the US.
Yes its getting colder and not only in temperature but in the way we treat each other.I can't just be like others and stand by to witness their suffering .I can't be like others and record them on my phone and hope for the best.I can't only say a prayer and not take action. I refuse to let us become desensitized and lose our humanity.
Ladies and gentlemen my name is Emilio Pensado Junior and I refuse to live in a world that is okay with suffering,cold,and hungry children/people.
I have organized donations for clothes and delivered it successfully despite legal hoops.I've driven hundreds of miles to deliver needed supplies and have been awarded by the United States Senate for my legitimate efforts,but I was never supported.I hope to have made a small difference in people lives. But the dent is so big that my mark isn't even a scratch on the surface. These kids cry of hunger ,they cry of sickness, they cry of loneliness. Some babies don't even cry anymore because they are used to the fact that no-one is coming to help them.Parents of other kids either keep them or other organizations may take them as well. In winter, there is no Santa ,there is no family meals ,there are no gifts,no hot chocolate,no festivities ,its only a season where the temperature reassures them of their struggles by making them feel the cold,dark reality of their situation.
Then there are people like you and me with the capability of making a difference with the smallest course of action.
I have made that my mission and purpose.
My mission is to show the children that there is more good then bad in this world. That not everyone will ignore their cries. That love can surpass any obstacle ,any border ,any politics.
That when people come together they can achieve great things.
That love is one of life's greatest gifts and everyone deserves it .
I wanna show them that I am here to stay and that I am not alone ,I come backed in full gear by people just like you full of love and compassion. This winter may be cold but the world they live in is far from it. With your help my organization can accomplish what well established corporate non-profits haven't in their long time of questionable "giving".
With your help they will have a warm place to sleep on this winter .They will have shoes on their feet and the simple option to put on a sweater if they feel cold or not.Mothers won't have to improvise feminine products. Newborns will have the nutrients they need to grow healthy,Fathers will have the clothes and adequate tools to move ahead in life and bring their families out of complete poverty.Most importantly there will be 3 meals a day this winter. The simple most ordinary things many take for granted.These kids don't care about iPads ,they don't care about the latest trends,or social status they just want to live. Come hell or high water we will help them survive the cold and establish grounds for a decent assistance program. I am humbly asking you to join me ,to help them, to give your love and compassion.I am honored to be their voice through this platform but together we are their hope. Being just one man I am tormented that I can't do more.I am calling upon you to donate in order to make this mission possible .I also ask that if for some reason you can't donate acouple dollars ,that you help share this Gofundme link.
and spread it out far ,spread it loud ,over the mountains,over the borders,up high and down below to as many people as you can.If you have clothes that you don't use in all sizes and genders or ages they would be also appriciated as the parents and family members are also without basic resources. Any small donation is greatly appreciated. Together there is no limit to what we can accomplish .However, realistically speaking we are helping 2 major overcrowded compounds with children and families but hopefully with your support we can evolve into a well known, aggressively active organization.
