My name is Mali and I currently serve as a cross-cultural missionary in Bolivia. I am helping my dear friends raise the funds to return to a place they all once called home. A place where lives were changed and hearts have been healed.

They are Camila, Diana, and Loren. A few years ago, they had the blessing of serving as volunteers at Centro de Vida Bolivia (a boys orphanage). During that time, Bolivia became their home, and the children, along with the staff, became their family. This experience allowed them to see the future full of hope that God has for each of those little ones, and the great reward received by those who dedicate their time and commitment to their upbringing.

Guided by their faith and motivated by the invitation of the Gabriel Durrua family—who led the home for ten years—they feel called to return to Bolivia this 2025 Christmas season to share one of the most important times of the year with the boys at the home. They believe this return is more than just a trip: it is an act of love and gratitude. Their plan is to join and support the holiday activities, offering their professional skills (as a doctor, psychologist, and social worker), their love to the children and staff, and the many years of of experience they have serving there previously . If you have ever traveled during the Christmas season, you know how important it is to have extra helping hands!

To make this dream come true, they need to raise $2,000. This amount will go toward covering their airfare. We invite you to be part of this mission! Any contribution—no matter how small—is a huge step for them... and for the children and staff they will serve.
