Dear supporter!
We are very glad to be able to share with you the success stories of our Albergue, which thanks to your generous contribution are now possible:
Carlos is an 8 year old boy who lost his parents two years ago and was under the caring of his grandmother. Due to his physical condition, Carlos' grandmother had difficulty providing him with the necessary care and attention, and so he came to the shelter for help. Upon entering the Albergue, Carlos was malnourished and did not have the expected height for his age. Also, the school reported that he used to fall asleep during classes and had difficulty paying attention in most of the topics being reviewed. A diagnosis and review of the case on his admission allowed for an intervention plan for Carlos to regain his weight and improve his health. From this, Carlos began to eat three times a day nutritious meals in addition to consuming healthy snacks. Periodic nutritional follow-up was conducted to monitor the progress of the intervention plan. Gradually, his weight increased and exercise routines were implemented to improve his health.
With the help of the educators at the Albergue, it was also possible to work on the educational backwardness that Carlos presented as a result of his inadequate health condition due to malnutrition. Currently, he is growing appropriately for his age and has improved his academic performance.
Your support allowed Carlos to improve his life and to have the right conditions so that he can develop optimally and achieve his dreams in the future.
On behalf of Carlos and all the Albergue’s beneficiaries that you help every day with your donation:
A million thanks!!

Nutriendo hoy para un mejor mañana
¡Estimado benefactor!
Nos agrada mucho poder compartirte las historias de éxito de nuestro Albergue, que gracias a tu generosa aportación son ahora posibles:
Carlos es un niño de 8 años que perdió a sus padres hace dos años, quedando bajo el cuidado de su abuela. Debido a sus condiciones físicas, la abuela de Carlos tenía dificultades para brindarle el cuidado y atención necesarias y por ello, acudió al Albergue solicitando apoyo para su crianza.
Al ingresar en el Albergue, Carlos presentaba desnutrición y no tenía la estatura esperada para su edad. Asimismo, en la escuela reportaron que solía dormirse durante clases y presentaba dificultades para prestar atención en la mayoría de los temas que se revisaban. Un diagnóstico y revisión del caso en su ingreso, permitió realizar un plan de intervención para que Carlos recuperara su peso y mejorara su estado de salud. A partir de esto, Carlos empezó a comer tres veces al día alimentos nutritivos además de consumir refrigerios sanos. Se realizó seguimiento nutricional periódico para vigilar el avance del plan de intervención. Poco a poco, incrementó su peso y se implementaron rutinas de ejercicio para la mejora de su estado de salud.
Con ayuda del acompañamiento de los educadores del Albergue, también se pudo trabajar el rezago educativo que Carlos presentaba a raíz de su estado de salud inadecuado debido a la desnutrición. Actualmente, presenta un desarrollo adecuado a su edad y ha mejorado su rendimiento académico.
Tu apoyo permitió que Carlos pudiera mejorar su vida y tenga las condiciones adecuadas para que pueda desarrollarse de manera óptima y en un futuro pueda lograr sus sueños.
De parte de Carlos y todos los beneficiarios del Albergue a los que ayudas día a día con tu donativo:
¡¡Un millón de gracias!!
