Thanks to your support, Génesis has been sponsored for the 2018 school year!
Génesis tiene nueve años y estudia tercer grado en el colegio. Su hermano mayor, Manuel de Jesús, también estudia aquí. Está en quinto grado. Génesis y Manuel nacieron en Flórida, donde aún tienen familia.
La materia favorita de Génesis es estudios sociales, y cuando sea grande, quiere ser doctora. Su comida favorita es hamburguesas y en su tiempo libre, le gusta andar en bicicleta. Génesis también juega con sus amigas y hace sus tareas.
Génesis y Manuel viven con su mamá, Paty. Su papá vive en el departamente de La Unión y jala caña. Paty se separó del esposo porque era infiel y abusivo con ella. Los niños no vean al papá con mucha frecuencia, aunque él sí les ayuda un poquito con los gastos del colegio. Paty acaba de empezar a trabjar en el colegio, haciendo comida para unos 30 alumnos que se quedan a almorzar. Aunque no gana mucho, sabe que es importante una buena educación para el futuro de sus hijos, y por eso los ha matriculado en el colegio.

Génesis is nine years old and in third grade. Her older brother Manuel de Jesús also studies at the school; he’s in fifth grade. Génesis and Manuel were actually born in Florida, where they still have family.
Genesis’s favorite subject is social studies and when she grows up she wants to be a doctor. Her favorite food is hamburgers and in her free time she likes to ride her bike. She also plays with her friends and does her homework.
Genesis and Manuel live with their mom, Paty. Their father lives in the department of La Unión and is a sugar-cane hauler. Paty separated from the children’s father because he became abusive and was also unfaithful to her. The children don’t see their father often, although he does help a little with their school expenses. Paty has just started to work at school, cooking lunch for about 30 students who come from far away and cannot go home to eat. Although her salary isn’t much, she knows how important a good education is to her children’s future and for this reason has enrolled them at PNARDS.
