Quinceañeras in South Park
Pictured: Consejo ED Jaime García with three honorees
On August 16, Consejo hosted a quinceañera for three young women. One of the fathers had this to say: | |
"Thank you for organizing this event. I am a single father of four children. For me it was impossible to make a party for my daughter's Quinceañera.
Another thing I want to say is thank you to Consejo, because they have changed my daughter. When she began at Consejo, she was very rebellious. She didn't care about anything.
My daughter is more open. . . and more helpful. And she changed a lot. Thank you for these things, because Consejo helped my family. . . my relationship with my daughter. And this thank you is with my heart. " | |
