CIS June 2021 Letter

Building Community – Building Dignified Homes: CIS’s integral approach to work in solidarity is changing people’s lives and changing their community.

San Salvador, June 2021

Dear Friends, 

We hope you and your communities are healthy and coming out of the pandemic with strengthened solidarity and awareness of our inter-connectedness via health, the environment, technology, and community. El Salvador, too, is slowly coming out of the pandemic with a mass vaccine program. I am writing to ask for your support to continue building community and dignified homes and addressing the root causes of migration and gang violence. 

 
Maribel is the sole breadwinner, sustaining her three children and grandchild. She makes less than minimum wage, at a bakery, and would never have the means to build a dignified home. (Before and After)
