Ermelinda del Carmen Palacios Cerón
39 years old / Homemaker
She works crushing cashew seeds and sells them. She also has a mill that she bought after selling a cow. She has it in case someone from the community needs to use it, and her husband grows vegetables. She also has cows and some pets that she takes care of. Ermelinda felt really happy when she heard the news about the house, the first thing that she did was thank God and asked him for everything to go well.

2 years old / Ermelinda’s son
His mother says he likes painting and drawing and he spends time playing at home.
She used to have another house made of mud but because of the rains and the river that overflows, it became inhabitable. Her mom gave her the house where they are living at the moment but the materials are old; the roof has leaks and during the rainy season, the river overflows and water gets inside the house “Thank you so much for blessing us with a house, May the Lord bless you abundantly”..
