Daniela’s family could benefit greatly from an income generating project so that their monthly income could increase. Currently, the family of seven lives off of only $100 a month.
Daniela’s mother has experience selling clothes and believes that they would be most successful in selling clothes and underwear form their home. With the income generated, Daniela’s family will be able to invest the profit of the business on more items and be able to sustain a better standard of living. We aim to raise $550 for underwear and fees.
All projects on the Aura’s House site are 100% US tax deductible and 100% of donations go to the families.

The family is truly grateful as you can see in the before and after photo galleries below and the kind words from Francisco’s aunt.
