Delivering food to villagers at San Jacinto village!

Other than working at the schools and parish, I have the opportunity to interact with the Peruvian family by delivering food to villagers. It is an amazing experience and is extremely fun! Each Peruvian family that is sponsored by a United States family will receive food monthly.  To ensure that everything is correct, the mother of the Peruvian family had to provide a picture ID and acknowledged through her signature that she had in fact received the food. One of the social worker from Santisimo Sacramento will always that photos of us making the delivery.

Typical ration: two bottles of oil,  2 lbs of beans, one bag of floor and two packages of noodles, and six packets of oat meal.

12 bowls of rice and 12 cans of milk

Delivering supplies to one of the Peruvian family with "Math teacher" , from St. Anne's, Texas.

I absolutely loved delivering supplies to all of the families. They were extremely grateful, fun loving and kind. Each of them gave us a tour of their home and expounded on how they loved having us here and how much they were grateful for having us deliver food to their houses. They also explained that because we give them food (which is worth $25 USD), they can use the money to buy other materials and improve the quality of their life!!
