The Recio Mora family applied for a Home of Hope in 2019 and were hopeful to receive their home in March of 2020, yet as the Covid- 19 pandemic escalated in Mexico at that time, they quickly realized that they would have to wait. Manuel, Veronica and their two daughters Dania and Grecia struggled throughout the lock down. Manuel had lost his job and at times they had no food in the house. Thankfully they had family nearby that helped them through as they waited patiently.
One night in December, as a storm blew through Ensenada, the force of the rain took out the mud retaining wall above their property. In the middle of the night, while the family was fast asleep inside, the dirt came sliding down and took out one of the walls of their makeshift shelter.
They ran out of the house and thankfully no one was hurt. Again, family supported them and they were able to rebuild their structure again. Once again, all they could do was wait. After much time had passed, the Recio Mora family finally received their miracle! They now are the proud owners of a safe and dry shelter for them to be together as a family. As he received the keys to their new home, Manuel shared, “We started to lose hope. We believed that it would never actually happen, but it did!”
