Dear donor,
Thank you for all these months of support! Your donations have meant a lot to our pregnant women and even their families!
Today, I want to introduce you Sofia, she's a 12-year-old girl that came here accompanying her pregnant sister. They both came to VIFAC when the Prosecutor's office decided they were better away from home, so to keep them together and make everything easier to her sister, we offered to receive them both.
While Sofia's sister has been taking all the workshops offered for the pregnant women at VIFAC, Sofia has been taking regularization classes, emotional and psychological therapy, and other courses related to her development and a lot of happy moments with her new friends.
To Sofia, it’s been a long journey since she arrived to VIFAC with a bad attitude and not knowing how to control her feelings and emotions. Here, she’s made new friends, is closer to her sister and is learning how to navigate her emotions in a healthy way, and she’s learning to read and write!
We feel very proud that, with your support, we are able to help both sisters and to know that we made a huge positive impact in their lives. Thank you!
Sincerely,
Ilse + VIFAC Guadalajara family

Querido donante,
¡Muchas gracias por estos meses de apoyo! Tus donaciones significan mucho para nuestras mujeres embarazadas e ¡incluso para sus familias!
Hoy, te quiero presentar a Sofia. Es una niña de 12 años que vino acompañando a su hermana embarazada. Ambas llegaron a VIFAC cuando Fiscalía del Estado decidió que estarían mejor fuera de su casa; para mantenerlas juntas y hacer la situación menos difícil para su hermana, nos ofrecimos a recibirlas juntas.
Mientras la hermana de Sofía participa en los talleres ofrecidos para las mujeres embarazadas en VIFAC, Sofia ha estado tomando clases de regularización escolar, terapia psicológica y emocional y otros cursos relacionados a su desarrollo, y muchos momentos de felicidad junto a sus nuevas amigas.
Para Sofia ha sido un largo camino ya que llegó a VIFAC con mala actitud y sin saber como controlar sus sentimientos y emociones. Aqupi, ella ha hecho nuevas amigas, es más unida con su hermana y esta aprendiendo a navegar sus emociones de forma sana, ¡y está aprendiendo a leer y escribir!
Nos sentimos muy orgullosos de que, con tu apoyo, podemos ayudar a ambas hermanas y de saber que hemos tenido un gran impacto positivo en sus vidas. ¡Muchas gracias!
Con cariño,
Ilse + la familia VIFAC Guadalajara
