Our History
95% of the work we've done over the past 7 years has come directly from our salary and being good stewards of the resources we've been provided.
Community Support
We have supported local communities in Mexico, spiritually through church, physically through food, clothing, and holiday gifts, and in times of loss by ministering over funerals.
Youth Outreach
We have supported hundreds of kids through bible teaching, and supplementing their learning opportunities outside of school.
Adult High School
Our Cross to Bear has been facilitating a state-run program that helps adults earn a high school equivalent degree for free.
Addressing Suicide and Mental Health
Our Story
I lost my baby sister to suicide.
Suicide is the most painful word I know, and using it next to my sister's memory overshadows and minimizes who she was in life.
So before I go on please know a little about her:
· We were both known for always being right so every talk became a debate between us
· She was thoughtful and gave gifts that spoke right to your heart
· She was greater than she ever gave herself credit
Why say it now? I don't want you to lose someone to suicide...
Love,
Aaron

Support Mental Health
We're providing faith-based counseling for those in need
We're raising $1500/month and 100% of it will be used for its given purpose
I've lived in Mexico for 7 years running a nonprofit to support local communities through education and youth activities. We've raised less than $10K over that time, doing nearly everything out of pocket.
But this year we are transitioning to focus on mental health and suicide prevention.
I have a person at our church in Mexico, Marco Zayas (Pictured with his wife), who is a licensed counselor and provides faith-based counseling called Theotherapy.
We are partnering with him to offer these services for free. This fall we are testing a model that we hope to scale with other counselors and the $1500 will be paid directly to support his work.
