MERCEDES OLGA YAL YAL

    Doña Olga lives near Casa Angelina with her only son. She grew up helping her mother by making cheese and selling it since the age of 10. She had only been married one year when her husband died in a car accident. She was only 23 years old. She struggled making enough money to meet her basic needs. She made a living selling cheese for a time, but due to kidney problems, she no longer works. Casa Angelina found her in a terrible situation, living in a simple village home that constantly let air and rain in. Because of the generosity and work of our teams, she now she has a home that keeps her warm and dry!
