Venezuelan diaspora family in Colombia
Donation protected
Hi, many of you know me, I'm David, and I am raising funds for the family of Maiker and Rosa Colmenares, a Venezuelan family with 5 children, plus Rosa's schizophrenic twin sister and her daughter to look after. I have known Maiker and Rosa since before they married, and have been supporting them for many years, both in Venezuela, and especially while they have been struggling to survive in Colombia. Like everyone in the past year they have been under great stress with rising rents and food prices. Maiker just finished a course to sell on-line, run by another Venezuelan friend of mine, and has been hired by a Latino company in the USA, but he needs a laptop computer to do his work effectively. Rosa has been selling coffee and a few home-made items on the street, but now has the opportunity to buy this display case, which will allow her to keep the food warm and increase her sales volume. (Sorry I cannot upload a full photo of the display case that also has a gas cannister for heat!)

The money I am seeking to raise is to facilitate these purchases and to buy some ingredients wholesale for Rosa's business. I thank all those who have helped this family in the past, and in advance for those who can support it now. Unificationists are especially generous supporting funeral expenses for those who recently passed. I trust that there is also compassion for the living. Blessings and best wishes, David
