Help for 3 girls left as orphans after father killed their mother :(

[playacaribe2]

Thank you for checking in and reminding me to come back here to update!! All 3 girls are doing really well. They are mainly staying with their grandmother in Rio San Juan now and continue to have weekly check ins from my friend (who they were staying with after the death of their mom), who also brings them supplies now and then as needed. She says they are all happy overall and doing well in school and enjoy spending time with their friends. The eldest of the three recently had her 15th birthday so she had a small but special celebration which my friend was able to help with, providing her with a fancy dress, cake, and some photos, which she really enjoyed.

I will have to check in with her and get back to you about the situation with the father (re: jail time, court, etc.). Hopefully he has been locked away for a long long while at this point! But you never know with the system here in the DR unfortunately.

Thank you again for checking in!!

Actually......................Thanks to You for alerting the board....................and to your friend who is regularly checking on them.

All we can do is make donations to help...............the real work is the day to day done by others.

Speaking of which, I just made another donation............hopefully others will jump back in too.

Since it was so close to 4K I closed the gap.

Daniel Vasilaky says tragic, but uplifting to read some of your remarks above.

Did Daniel Vasilaky make a donation?

Daniel Vasilaky asks JD Jones why he asked. Is he the one collecting?

This is great. But I strongly believe to keep the GoFundMe page open along with this thread. Things tend to fade from memory and these girls will need help for 15 years. I know that's daunting but those of us whom God has blessed really need to step up.

You are correct. Sadly, I am guilty of allowing this to fade from my memory. Thank you, PlayaCaribe, for bumping this. There's no such thing as too much for these girls.

The answer is no......he is not collecting.

But he is a large donor.

Interesting first post though.

That is the best you can do? Go somewhere else to post

Thank you so much for thinking of the girls and donating again! I will get the money to them this weekend and do a check in, then post an update. There were a few ups and downs for the girls over the past few months so I'm hoping the latest update comes with some more ups!

Thank you for following up.

Given their circumstances, those children will, to be sure, have many ups and downs ahead.

That is why they need and deserve our support…..

Is the same go fund me still the best route to get money to the girls?

That's the way I always do it.
