After the terrible earthquake of September 19th, 2017, the village of Santa Cruz Cuautomatitla (State of Puebla) in Mexico has suffered a lot of damages. Here is a video of Santa Cruz, a few weeks after the earthquake:
We are a group of volunteers that came to help the community of Santa Cruz Cuautomatitla.
Engineers, architects, people from marketing, from Human Rights are working as a group to make this project a success. We arrived in the village a few days after the earthquake and started to help Yuliett's family to remove the ruins of the houses.
Imagine, the work of all your life becomes dust in a few seconds, the population of the village works in the fields and have very low income.
We worked with a team of geologists from Mexico City and their conclusions were that the families have to relocate as the area where they lived is too close from a cliff and with the rain season coming, there can be landslide.
Yuliett's family:
Yuliett, Alizón, Doña Juana and Pinocho (Yuliett's cousin)
Before the earthquakes:
After the earthquake:
As they can't afford to rebuild their house and until now, they are living in a house made of corrugated iron; the grandmother, the daughter and the granddaughter all living in the same room, in the same bed...
Today we are at 15 working days of finishing the house and leaving the family with a new roof and hopes for the future, but we, they, need your help so we will be able to finish before the rains are too strong!
The project:
Donate to our crowdfunding campaign by selecting a reward from the list on the right. We and Yuliett's family are so grateful for your support!
Fund us and help Yuliett, Doña Juana and Alizón to get their new house ready in a few weeks! This could really change their future
