On the roads of life
Vicky and Arturo, from the Santa Clara Family Home of the Pope John XXIII Community, live with their eight children in Guadalajara, Spain. Here they take in mothers in difficulty, the elderly and people with disabilities. Their commitments are many and a car is essential to carry out all their daily activities. Let's help them find the resources to buy a safe and spacious car, suitable for this large and itinerant family!
Since 1999, Mother Vicky and Father Arturo, of the Santa Clara Family Home of the Pope John XXIII Community, have opened the doors of their home to so many people in need: children, young people with drug addiction problems, girls snatched from the streets, people with disabilities. Together with them they have traveled a piece of the road to the many places in the world where they have brought their testimony of life and sharing: Brazil, Chile, Bolivia, Argentina, Calabria and now Spain, in Guadalajara.
Here they live together with their 8 children between natural and welcomed and, together with local institutions, welcome migrant and single mothers with their children, people with disabilities and the elderly who suffer from loneliness, with no one to talk to and spend their days with.
Arturo is in charge of pastoral care for Roma families in the area; Vicky is a full-time mom, not only to her children but also to all the people who pass through their home. They cultivate the garden, create handmade soaps that are donated to families in need in the area, they live as a family between various activities and simplicity.
Like any family the commitments are many and a car is essential to be able to carry out all the daily activities of their children but also of those who attend their home every day and find love and serenity there.
The Community has already found a suitable car for them but needs someone to help them find the resources for the incurred cost, 4,700€. This expense was not planned and the needs of the Family Homes are growing every day, but for Arturo and Vicky a new vehicle was indispensable. That is why your support is crucial. Your help will guarantee them a safe and capacious car suitable for this large and itinerant family!
Create your own fundraiser and give it life by sharing it with your friends, family, colleagues or acquaintances. Or support those who have already opened one by leaving your donation and a message of your own that may convince others to do the same.
Put it in gear and let's go! Let's walk together with Vicky and Arturo a piece of the road to this wonderful life!
