Savier (30 years old) is a single father living in Quito, who supports his only daughter, Ivanna (3 years old). After earning his high school degree, Savier migrated to Ecuador from Venezuela and he and his partner had his daughter here. However, Savier now raises his daughter by himself.
Previously, Savier supported himself through his own bakery, but after complications with his daughter’s mother, Savier was left with no choice but to sell what he had so that he could take care of Ivanna. He is currently working five days a week to make a living while Ivanna stays with her grandmother during the day. Savier dreams of having his own bakery once again so that he can have a stable income and give his daughter a good life.
Pan de Vida wants to help Savier achieve his goal of gaining stability through having his own bakery and managing a business. The entrepreneurship program would be a great fit for Savier’s family because he can gain leadership & management skills, while also making a living for him and Ivanna. Since Ivanna has just started school, supporting this family would also include providing her with school supplies throughout her years of education until Savier’s dream bakery becomes a reality and he can provide these things for is family through his hard work.
‘Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ,’(Galatians 6:2). Please consider helping through donations and prayers, as our Pan de Vida family walks with Savier and Ivanna, bearing their burdens as brothers and sister in Christ, and lifting them up with the love of God.
