They Continue to CREATE their own problems for Centuries; So the WHITE PEOPLE have to Go and SOLVE their problems and take Care of their PEOPLE; because just look at what they DO to themselves; they Destroy themselves; and then the WHITE MEN have to GO SAVE THEM.
      But, Latinos and Black Communities Around the World is always talking CRAP about the White Man, Only to have their hands Out Opened for the White Man to GIVE THEM. They are like PARASITES. I know; As a Latina, and to MUCH SHAME; I cannot Go Anywhere in the WORLD and get a little Respect FROM ANYBODY; because people look at me and What do they SEE??

And, also these people that HATE the WHITE PEOPLE SO MUCH, are always Creating their Problems; So the GRINGOS Go Solve their problems ALWAYS; So do the black communities around the WORLD.

    Karen this is a dream of mine. Born in the United States in poverty and in a chaotic home having certain people in my life like teachers that just gave me a hug made such a impact in my young life. I'm Mexican American and for the last 10 years I have wanted to move to Mexico to start an orphanage or something similar. What you have started in Bucerias is amazing and inspiring. I'm not in the position to make it happen as of right now but hopefully soon I will be on my way to Mexico to make it a reality.

To see expats doing something like this for the people just warms my heart no end. I want to move to Mexico so badly, but now that there is such bad inflation, I can't meet the financial requirements for a temporary residency visa. I wish there was a way, because if I don't get out of here, I'll end up living in a van like so many older people in the US. Bless you for all you do.

    Epic, result, As a Child having lived in Hamilton Ont., Canada I found myself in foster homes from the age of 11 to 16 with the Catholic aid society. Education is everything... I fully understand the good you're doing from personal experience. Today I live in Sydney, Australia, I'm planning to conduct clinical trials in Mexico for HIV/Aids as I have found a small drug discovery startup biotech company. If all goes well, I may end up moving to Mexico for a few years to complete the drug clinical development. This is my story, It can happen if people like Karen help children grow on their way, as I had the same help in Foster homes, as a child growing up in Canada.
    Keep up the good work, Karen and your team.
