We've raised the money to buy Albergue ABBA but the work is not complete. Necessary renovations and continued maintenance mean ongoing expenses. Together, we can help preserve the dignity, safety and human rights of so many who are often forgotten.

WHO WE HELP
The Latin American Relief Fund aids those fleeing violence in Central America (El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras) by providing financial assistance to a migrant shelter, Albergue ABBA in Celaya, Guanajuato, Mexico. ABBA means "father" in Hebrew and symbolizes the caring nature of its founder, Protestant Pastor Ignacio Martínez Remírez, who offers to all migrants three days and nights stay with meals, in a safe environment, free calls home to their families, medical and psychological assistance, and information on applying for asylum when qualified.
PLEASE HELP US HELP THEM
