My name is Rose Phara Mertus. I am 8 years old.

I was born in a zone called Gros-Morne in northwest Haiti, where I grew up with my mom; I did not know my dad, because he died when I was a baby. I have 3 sisters and one brother.

 

My life was very difficult, because my mother did not have a job or anyone to help us; she was not able to take care of her 5 children. Many times I used to sleep without eating and when I was hungry, and I asked my mother to give me the food, she hit me, because she did not have anything to give us.

 

Today I am happy because I find a spot where someone is taking care of me.  I would be really happy if the same person could take care of my 4 sisters and brother also.

 

I want to thank everyone and that allows me to go to school, have clothes, and who removed me from the difficult situation that I was in.

Thanks, one thousand times!

Thanks for reading and praying about these items! We look forward to sharing more news next month!
