Charito's Fund * Helping the ones in Need


Today I want to post about a friend, a mother, a server of God, a widow.
Her name is Charito, she is a mother of two children, a boy and a girl, Devin and Marneri. Charito's husband passed away in the year 2005, he left her and her two children without a house to make their home, the only thing they had was a piece of land in the remote little town they live in.


Because they don't own a home and can't afford to rent one, they have been leaving at a house that they have been maintaining for the owners who live outside the country. However this year Charito has been told that her family has to leave the house as soon as possible. This is a big boarder on this mother who works every day to make enough to get by with food and clothes.
Some people in the community are trying to help her build their little home.

The kids have been helping too. Devin got a little sick because he insisted in helping with the hard work of carrying dirt out of the lot, Marneri helped mom bring cold water to the workers.

Even though there have been volunteers and donors helping out there is still a lot to do to see the house finish and they have run out of funds, they had a person donate some blocks and some of the workers are working for free too.



The house is very modest, small, two rooms, one bathroom a kitchen and living-dining room combination, she was about to just build a little shack but many friends in the community offer to help and lend a helping hand.




Know Charito:


Ever since I have memory I can remember her, she is a great friend to many. A hard worker from her childhood, I remember her washing clothes since very little with her mom, both working hard to pay for the food for their big family 7 girls (one of them adopted) and a boy.

Charito has been a hard worker all her life, later on when her mom was too sick and there was no work for her dad in the small town, she took on the work all by herself all to keep feeding her brother and sisters. She has always done this and always has a watchfully eye for those in need with the little she can help.
Day by day she works hard to keep her two kids healthy and fed. You can find her visiting the sick or those in pain for the lost of a love one, you can find her in church with her two kids by her side.



Her kids:
Devin & Marneri.
These are the greatest kids, they both understand when mom can't afford to buy ice cream from the guy selling on the streets. They are very close and take care of each other and love sharing. Devin is quite the big brother, he can take an hour trip holding half of that bag of Cheetos to take it home to his sister.
Devin suffers from asthmas his father did. Marneri is just a sweet yet strong girl. They both go to the local public school and are on the top of the class.
If you have gotten to this point please, if you have any way to help make sure you do, God will recompense you tremendously.
