Donation protected
Last weekend there was a horrible accident here in san pedro, Guatemala. (Michaela, Sam, Rose y Sarah) Currently we are living with a wonderful family here in their house in san pedro while we learn spanish in the school. There was an explosion last Saturday in the afternoon. The explosion was in the house of our mother’s sister, near to our house. The gas cylinder in the kitchen exploded. The family are lucky because no one suffered severe injuries, despite the children being very near to the explosion. The damage that was caused by the gas cylinder exploding was terrible. The mother has three young daughters and they were in the house. During the explosion the windows over 3 floors were broken, 4 metal doors were crushed. The oven and fridge were blown up in the explosion. On Saturday we went to see the damage, the family and children. It is very sad to see the damage caused by the gas cylinder in the family home. Nevertheless the feeling of gratitude is immense. The four children and the mother were in the house during the explosion but they only received some small injuiries. No one was seriously injured ‘thanks to god', it was a miracle, the sentiment of our mother and family here. Our family here are very kind humble and remarkably could still smile despite the damage destruction and trauma. We have created this website to help raise funds for repair of the windows doors and to help the mother buy a new stove and fridge so she can once again cook for and feed her children We would be very grateful if you could spare more money and contribute to help this humble family.
