Welcome to year 7 of this fundraising campaign for an orphanage in El Salvador.

My name is Leyla Razeghi. I am a proud Salvadorian that now lives in Toronto. I want your help in raising funds for a cause that is dear to my heart. My family supports Hogar Natalia Siman, which is a home for abandoned and/or orphaned girls in El Salvador.

This home is run by Carmelita nuns that love the children and are great to them and does not get support from the Government and its only income are donations. 

The money (after fees) goes 100% to the girls, with no middleman. It will be used for:
- Food
- Maintenance of the home
- Basic necessities
- School supplies
- Utilities

As soon as the funds clear via Paypal, I will send them to a family member in El Salvador, who will exchange them for US$ (currency in El Salvador) and deliver them in person.

I love to keep my donors posted by showing you pictures and videos from the home and the time the donations are received, every year the girls have made us a card with their thanks and good wishes.

This year I have one friend who is Salvadorian as well that will join me in raising funds, her name is Sarah Pineda, and she shared this about herself:
"Piyali! Nehua notōcā Sarah Pineda. Nimitztlahpaloa. Ne nihuala Cuscatleca.
Greetings! My name is Sarah Pineda-Maldonado, Blue Golden Eagle/Eagle Clan & Cuscatleca. For years, my family and I have supported our people through acts of kindness and as an adult, I continue to put forth those values through my everyday life. My +7 years of post-secondary education fostered my passion for finding solutions to empower marginalized and vulnerable people, which is why I joined my amiga, Leyla this year to support this amazing initiative. Children are our future and we must do everything we can to ensure their safety and livelihood. Supporting the next generation is key to a brighter future. With this being said please support us in raising more than enough funds for this orphanage. "


Every bit helps!

Thanks so much!

Leyla
