Casa Nueva Esperanza
To be fully funded monthly, each of our houses needs one house sponsor ($2,000) and twelve child and family sponsors ($120 each). Casa Nueva Esperanza’s House Sponsor is Flory Morales. To see how close Casa Nueva Esperanza is to reaching full funding from child and family sponsors, check the progress bar below.
The house parents of Casa Nueva Esperanza are Mario and Alejandra, with their 2 year old son. Mario has been serving as the director of the transition and vocation program before agreeing to take on the role of house parents this year. Alejandra also helps serve in the Clinic as our Dental Assistant. Although Mario and Alejandra are our newest set of house parents, they have both already had the opportunity to serve the kids in their house, and build rapport with them. They serve alongside house helper Caty, who has been covering various houses within the past year, and helping wherever she is needed in Casa Bernabé!
The boys in this house range from 8 to 18 years old and love playing Wii and MarioKart. The younger boys also enjoy playing with marbles and building legos. You can often find them outside in the basketball court playing various sports, or chilling outside on the picnic table. They also have fit into their roles as “Big Brothers” and have been playing with Mario and Alejandra’s little one, making sure he is being cared for. They love joking with each other, and playfully bantering at the dinner table, talking about all the fun things they did that day.
