Alanna’s Story
Alanna is a shy young girl from the Dominican Republic. She enjoys eating chicken, rice, and chocolate—especially chocolate ice cream. She loves to color, play with her friends, and attend church. Her favorite color is red.

Alanna lives in one of BCH’s foster homes. Her father passed away, and her mother struggles to find employment. Like many Haitian refugees in the Dominican Republic, her mother has no legal documentation. This means she cannot work, and Alanna cannot attend school. Life is very difficult for families in this situation.

Sponsor a Child Today
BCH is helping by providing care, food, clothing, and education for children like Alanna. Our goal is to help families find a way to live and support themselves. We continue to pray and have faith for the day when Alanna and her mother can live together again and flourish as a family.

Your support helps make that possible. Thank you!
