Meet Cecilia

CECILIA w  as abandoned by her parents in her early teens and with no where to go, admitted herself into an orphanage so she can be safe and get an education. Cece graduated high school and is now in her 5th semester studying psychology. "When I was at the orphanage, there was a need for us to talk about our lives, to get help, but no one was listening. I decided to get a psychology degree to one day return, listen, and help children living in orphanages. I was one of them, I know what they are going through". Cece recently received her USA Visa and will attend upcoming CDV events. She is the perfect example of what can be done with a helping hand.
