It's a new year and we're off to a great start helping to build homes for families in need. We are excited to announce that anytine Giveback Homes Members make a contribution to our Building Project in Nicaragua, they will help build a home for Yahaira and her family.

Meet Yahaira Flores! She is a 31-year-old, female entrepreneur, married to Ismael, who is also 31 years old. They have been together for eight years and have two kids, Ismary Liseth (8 years old) and Yahir Ismael (5 years old).  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yahaira and her family used to live with her mother-in-law, where they shared a small home with 15 people. But in April of last year, their house burned down due to a short circuit, leaving them all homeless. Luckily, they were able to move in with her brother, but they live in overcrowded conditions, sharing a home with nine people. The government promised to rebuild their home, but they have not received an answer so far. Yahaira rides her bike everyday to volunteer at the fire brigade, and Ismael is a jeweler, making about $150/month. Yahaira helps him sell jewelery and also sells chocobananas and various other snacks with her sister-in-law. They were even in the process of making a new batch during our visit to meet her, they were delicious! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Soon, with the contributions from Giveback Homes Members,Yahaira and her family will have a new home, built on land that was given to her by her mother. The entire town is very excited for their family to receive a home, because they all know that their house burned down and it's been difficult. We are also excited to be a part of building a new home for Yahaira and her family.
