We, For Such a Time as This are committed to continuing the help of our families and communities. After almost 2 years from Hurricane Maria devastation, our people are still in need; physical,emotional and spiritual. Day by day we are growing more devoted to keep helping individuals, families, and communities to a better present and a better future.
The process has been long and slow. We had to talk to so many people, write so many letters, and sign so many documents, but we are committed with our community and with Puerto Rico. We will keep working and doing whatever the agencies ask us to do until we have the abandoned school building for the Community Relief Center. We will see it!
It is a great responsibility but when you are called to do it.. things just fall into place! We have met with professionals in different areas to create the programs we will be offering at the Educational Community Relief Center, such as art, mindfulness, wellness, health programs, financial programs and more to encourage a better present and a better future for families. We had a great time in the States raising awareness of Puerto Rico’s situation and meeting with people to explain the vision of the Community Relief Center. We will be impacting more than 6,000 people.
We are called to serve and we are serving Puerto Rico! We are workimg now to leave a legacy for the generations to come.
For the vision is yet for the appointed time, it hastens towards the goal and it will not fail.Though it tarries,wait for it..For it will certainly come, it will not delay. -Habakkuk 2:3
