Meet Carmen. She belongs to a needy family. The father works as a potter and earns approximately 5 USD per day. The mother is also a potter that earns approximately 5 USD daily. Although both parents work, their low incomes are not enough to put the food on the table and keep the children thriving. Carmen has one brother. She speaks Purepecha and Spanish, and attends primary school, at an early grade. She lives in a shack. Her diet mainly includes oatmeal, rice, lentils, vegetable soup, eggs, cheese, tortillas, and milk. Despite the adverse situation, she weighs 19.7 kg and shes 1.20 m tall. Carmen enjoys Christmas watching the Christ Child Birth representation at her community, and going to posadas. Please, give Carmen a chance to be your friend. Your kind advice and support can encourage her much. In addition, shell attend workshops aimed to discover and develop her skills, while playing with other kids. This most probably will have a very positive impact on her and her future.
