“Muchísimas gracias a quienes regalaron y siguen regalando ropa para el estudiante que mencioné la semana pasada. Sólo uno de muchos chiquillos que han cruzado solos esa travesía entre dos países para reunirse con sus padres o sólo para tener una mejor vida.“En su primer día de escuela no tuvo más que sonrisas para todo mundo a pesar de no entender lo que dicen porque su idioma es Q'anjob'al. Al final del día se fue feliz a casa y mucho mejor vestido para protegerse del frío. ¡Muchísimas gracias por su apoyo!”
