Help Sponsor Rogelio (14 yrs old)

SpreadKindness.org has joined hands with the CelebrateLIFE! Community in San Francisco for a very special project. We're working together to provide an orphan in Mexico with a complete year of secondary education, including room and board - for only USD $250!

Our friend, Drew Vogt from CelebrateLIFE! told us about this project last week. For several years, Drew has been visiting the Procasa Hogar de Ninos orphanage in Oaxaca, Mexico, to learn about the kids’ daily needs, and discover new ways to assist them. Amazingly enough, the orphanage has found a way to provide each orphan with one year of secondary education, plus room and board, for only $250. Drew has already arranged sponsorships and raised the necessary funds to help five children. SpreadKindness.org will be sponsoring the sixth! .


About the Orphanage

The Procasa Hogar de Ninos orphanage is located in Oaxaca, one of the most culturally rich states of Mexico . This small orphanage assists boys who “fell through the cracks”. Many are from abusive families, and have no alternative other than the streets. The orphanage and its founder are overwhelmed by the region's large number of orphans. The orphanage provides food, shelter, nominal religious training, and some psychotherapy for healing from abuse. The orphanage also helps these children learn to stretch their dreams further, by assisting them in getting an education today, so they can build a better life tomorrow.

About our Sponsored Orphan

Rogelio Bautista is 14 years old. He’s cheerful, intelligent and an attentive student. He comes from an educationally-challenged community where illiteracy is common, and the dream of a career is almost unimaginable.

Rogelio lives with 14 other orphans, and is thriving in the loving environment. He has completed his elementary education.
As is the standard at the orphanage, Rogelio has reached the age where he must move out of the orphanage to make room for other, younger orphans. For many children, this means a future without education, and a life of menial labor, or worse.

SpreadKindness.org has committed to contributing $250 to provide Rogelio with this much needed assistance. For this small amount of money, Rogelio will receive a year of secondary education, plus room and board.

How You Can Help

To support this effort, we’re asking for donations to help us achieve our goal of $250. No amount is too small: look at it this way…$5 pays for an entire week of education, food and shelter for Rogelio!

To donate, please go to http://spreadkindness.org/support and include "Sponsorship for Roegelio" in the notes section.
