Mateo Elian was born in a nice and cold area of the Andean highlands. He is not attending school yet because of his age and while he remains at home he enjoys playing with toy cars. Mateo as he is called at home has black hair and is rather slim. He is friendly and playful. His favorite food is fruits. Mateo lives with his mother and grandparents in a dwelling of their own made of cement roof, cheap cement block walls and cement floor. It has potable water, electricity supply and a septic tank. His mother supports the family working as an agricultural laborer and she makes one hundred dollars a month. His father does not live with the family nor supports them. They live in a rural community away from the main town and surrounded by beautiful nature. This family is willing to be part of the Organization to participate of the programs it carries out in benefit of children and their families. We encourage you to open your heart and sponsor Mateo and help improve the life conditions of this child.
