Report from Dr. Diana D Frade

The global economy has affected everyone, even in Honduras , one of the poorest nations in the Americas . There is a saying that sums up our reality: When the United States sneezes, in Honduras , we get pneumonia. This actually is not an exaggeration of the economic climate that we are experiencing at the present time.

Honduras has suffered job losses that were already teetering around 38% before the economic crisis. Today, businesses have folded, assembly plants have lain off workers and the overall picture for this year and the following months is grim.

Even in light of the financial projections we continue to work constantly to provide the very best for our girls so that they will grow in love and security that heals their traumas both physical and mental.

Our Little Roses is dependant on the generosity of those that are willing to make a sacrifice to reach out and give these precious girls an opportunity at life. Without you, what are the options? These little girls that have been rescued from abuse, abject poverty and abandonment would be left to fend for themselves. Many of those girls would be subject to a precarious life on the street, subjected to further abuse, humiliation and degradation. I would even go as far as saying that some of these girls would not survive. Disease and violence would rob them of their lives.

Our Little Roses is solely funded by individuals, churches and organizations that understand the importance of caring and raising up these children that God has given us to care for. I pray that as you prayerfully consider your financial priorities that you will continue to support this ministry that is touching the lives of hundreds of girls and families who are the neediest in this poor struggling country.

Your gifts are surely blessings that help break the cycle of poverty that we are committed to the struggle of eliminating...

Faithfully in His Service,

Diana Frade
