The Hope Baptist Mission Children's Home was started in Juarez, Mexico to house unwanted and orphaned children. The home is set in the outskirts of Juarez in a very needy area. Juarez is a very violent city. This year as of Oct. 1, there has already been more than 1000 homicides. The city has about 2.2 million in population. Mexico is not set up with a foster care system like the USA. If a child becomes unwanted or orphaned and no family is there to care for them, they end up on the streets. Gang and drug violence end many lives early that could have been saved if they had not been in that environment. Hope Baptist Mission will house 64 children. It seems like such a meager number when we know there are so many kids in need of a home.
We are building 16 rooms for the children (each room will cost approximately $3000)
Your financial support pays for the contents of each room.
$200 buys drywall
$450 buys 4 beds and 4 mattresses
$100 buys paint for the room
$300 buys windows
$450 buys four desks (the orphanage will also have a school)
$100 buys a soft rug for the floor
$300 buys a clean tile floor $100 buys a sturdy door for the room
$200 buys bedding for each of the four beds
$200 buys books and supplies for the children's desks
