See this sweet girl right here?  This is my daughter.  Evangeline Delia.  She was born in Guatemala.  She has another mother that loves her and grew her in her stomach for nine months.  Another mother that didn’t feel like she would have enough money to feed, clothe, and house her.  So she made the heart-wrenching decision to place her for adoption with a family that lives in a country where food is plentiful.  No mother should ever have to make that decision.

There were other factors involved in this story but truth is that half of the children in Guatemala right now are chronically malnourished.  There has been a horrific drought recently that is causing a terrible food shortage that is making the situation even worse.

Please, if you can, consider helping in any way possible.  Below is the link for a charity called “Mayan Families.”  They are an organization that I trust completely to take donations and provide desperately needed food straight to Guatemala’s poorest.  With little overhead cost.

I am trusting God right now and anyone who donates to Mayan Families this month I will match your donation up to $500 total. Just e-mail me at webmaster@modernmommyblog.com

As I said on my Facebook page the children in Guatemala need food right now way more than my credit card company needs a check.
