A letter from Sasha:
Dear Sponsors St. Pius X CWL,
I thank you for the help you sent me. I am so happy for the wardrobe and also the clothing will be so useful in the cold weather. I will take good care of everything.
My family is very happy for your gifts and we are all healthy.
I have new experiences in the school because we participate in dance and walk activities. I am thinking about to study the children teaching career since it is interesting to me and I like it very much.
Thank you for the help you give and may God take care of all of you always.
I send you kind regards.
Sincerely,
Sasha Licen Delgadillo Aviles
