Welcome to Esperanza Urbana's quarterly update. We hope you all had great holidays with your friends and family despite the very particular circumstances once again this year.
The beginning of every year is always a busy time at the rehab center and sure enough there has been a lot of new men starting their rehabilitation journey. The directors of the center have also been very present on the streets of San Jose meeting and identifying potential individuals that might be ready to change their lives. David and a small group of volunteers have been also going out bringing food and hot beverages to people on a weekly basis. As you can see in the included photos, we are meeting very interesting people, such as this great singer playing on a homemade instrument but bringing joy to everyone on a cold night.
The pandemic has been hard on the community but also on our coffers, so we thank you very much for continued support. We could not do it without you! Let’s continue to plant a seed of hope, together!
