Supporting a family in need

We have put together a list of 10 families from different areas of Belize, who really need a home. When you go to buy a tickets you have the option of either writing a ticket out in your name or for someone else who needs a home. Of coarse we cannot and will not manipulate who will wins the house, but we can put the odds in the favor of a needy family. 

Take a look below at some of the families we work with, whom we know will benefit from a new home. Would you consider buying a ticket on behalf of one of these families as you also buy one for yourself?
