Allena Cadle
Allena is a quiet and thoughtful young girl from a single-parent household. She has four siblings, including a newborn her mother welcomed just last year. Her mother works tirelessly to support the family but struggles without a steady job.
To help at home, Allena often babysits her younger siblings—especially the baby—which has caused her to miss school frequently. While she has the potential to thrive academically, these absences have made it difficult for her to keep up.
With the right financial support, Allena could focus more on her education and less on responsibilities that no child her age should have to shoulder alone. Your help could give her the stability she needs to succeed.
About my community:
Our Lady of Guadalupe (Belize City)
In this Diocese, there is a Co-Cathedral in honor of Our Lady of Guadalupe, and she is now the patron saint of our CARITAS program in Belize. Sponsors and children will be asking for her intercession asking that more poor children in the diocese can find a sponsor.
About my country:
Belize
Belize is a Caribbean country on the northeastern coast of Central America bordering Mexico and Guatemala. English is the official language, while Creole and Spanish are also very common. Belize’s population is ethnically diverse as refugees from Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador began migrating to Belize in the 1980s to escape civil war and political unrest in their countries. This has added significantly to the poverty that is found on the mainland.
