Tucked away in the rural village of Kuguita, Mambajao, Camiguin, Mariel's family is trapped in a living nightmare. They reside in a tiny, decaying house—its roof leaks with every rainfall, and the wooden walls are crumbling beneath the weight of time. Thin, rotting wood barely holds the structure together, patched up with tattered tarpaulins and scrap materials that only offer a false sense of protection.
There’s barely enough room for all four of them to sleep, let alone dream, laugh, or grow. In the absence of a real kitchen or bathroom, they are left with a small corner outside—an exposed, unsanitary space where they struggle to bathe and find what little privacy they can. The muddy ground is a constant reminder of their harsh reality, where even basic sanitation is a daily battle.
There is no comfort. No safety. And the most gut-wrenching part of all: Mariel’s baby girl, whose tiny body shivers through the night, feeling the bitter cold as the wind sneaks through the gaps in the walls. A little one, too young to understand the hardships, yet suffering every moment.
With each passing day, the baby’s needs grow, while Mariel faces the impossible task of choosing between food for her family or materials to repair their broken home. The weight of these choices presses down on her every day.
But through it all, Mariel holds on to hope—quietly, determinedly, for the sake of her child. She dreams of a better life—a life where her daughter can grow up in safety, where their home isn’t a constant reminder of their struggle. A real home, one where they don’t have to fear the storms, the insects, or the shame of not having basic human dignity.
But she can’t do it alone. They need help.
Your support can turn their reality into something better. Together, we can give Mariel and her family the hope and safety they so desperately deserve in a new home.
