Dear Generous Friends,
My sister Ariana began raising funds for Casa Hogar Hijos de la Luna in 2011. At the time, her goal was to raise $50,000 to help expand the wonderful home which Casa Hogar provides for so many children in their community. Since Ariana began raising funds through Expand Casa Hogar, amazing support from people like Ana who held benefit dinners and concerts in her native Switzerland, Julia who climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro to benefit Casa Hogar and supporters like yourselves have enabled us to pass the $50,000 goal by more than $20,000, far more than we could ever have hoped for.
Many thanks go out to you for all the love you have showered open Casa Hogar! The new house is nearly purchased, but most importantly, Dona Coco and her sons and helpers continue to love and care for 50 indescribably wonderful children, providing them with food, love, education and a place to stay, every single day that they might need them.
Expand Casa Hogar is taking a nap from web presence for the time being. To stay in touch with Casa Hogar, please visit them in Oaxaca or at their website http://www.hijosdelaluna-en.org/. Please feel free to email us at ariana@expandcasahogar.com or sophia@expandcasahogar.com with any questions, or ask Casa Hogar directly at contacto@hijosdelaluna.org.
Love and thanks,
Sophia
