Perez Family Home
In 2017, Mario Nava was killed in a tragic accident while removing a large tree limb that threatened his family’s home. Since then, his children and their mother Olga Perez have been trying to support their family of five. The mobile home they live in at the Central Mobile Village behind Nuevo Laredo Cantina is beyond repair and has now been condemned.
Nava's daughter attends E Rivers Elementary School and the Perez family participates in The Agape Youth Program, an afterschool and summer program for low-income children living in the Bolton Road corridor. They have been successfully operating for over twenty years and have a 100% graduation rate for students who stick with the organization.
As we are committed to serving our community, we have been presented with the unique opportunity to purchase a new modular home for the family. The cost will be $64,000. PRUMC Sports and Recreation has offered to use the resource of our participants to allow a new beginning for the Perez family. We hope you will find it in your heart to support this very worthy endeavor that will change the future for this working single mother and her children.
Those of you who know me well know that I have a soft spot for children who have lost a parent. I believe we have a communal obligation to provide support to help fill the overwhelming void left in their lives. I also consider the families involved in our programs the most exceptional families in Atlanta.
Everyone needs help sometime. Together, I know we can get this done!
