Maria Luz Flores de Cruz
39 years old / House maid
Now that her children are studying, she doesn’t have time to work because she is busy with household chores. However, if someone asks her during the week to do domestic work, she goes and gets paid for the day. There are also days when she goes out to clear land or work in the field. María always had faith that her little house would come to fruition, and today she feels happy because she is going to have her new home.

This house was build 8 years ago, but all the water seeps inside the house and when it rains the wind lifts the laminates on the roof.
“ We want to thank Shelter and the group of Canadians who are helping, thank you for helping the community and we feel grateful with God”.
