Pineda Family
Family Story: The Pineda family is a resourceful and resilient family who has overcome many challenges over the years. For the last two years, the matriarch of the family, Bendiciรณn, has taken on the direct care of her grandson Alfredo who was removed from the direct care of his parents who are in Mexico. Despite being the single parent of another young child, Bendiciรณn finds the time to volunteer in her local social services agency (Tiburcio Vazquez) and holds down two jobs to make ends meet. All the while providing the kind of home where a child like Alfredo, who has experienced neglect and abuse as a very young child, can feel safe, happy, and grow into the wonderful child he is today. For them, this extra help over the holidays would go a long way in easing the stress and worry that this family typically experiences during the holidays due to their economic limitations.
