      Meet the 2019 scholarship recipients

      Make a Miracle is proud to support education through college scholarships. Jack, Rachel, Lady, Rosa, Doris, Dayana, Edith and I held 3 days of interviews with some incredibly inspiring young people from San Juan de Lurigancho, Peru. Some were held outside during a house build, some at Los Pinos school during gardening & building, some at our office before our workshop. We ran out of tissues early on. We laughed, cried, hugged and loudly yelled "aprobado" or approved 14 ti

      A student meets his sponsor

      Surprise! One minute you are eating dinner at Stars and Strikes and the next you are face to face with your sponsor...your hero...your Godmother. The hugs and tears were priceless! Backing up: Carmen has been sponsoring Jasson's college education for almost a year, and generously paid for his Visa application to come to the states. It is extremely difficult for Peruvians to get a Visa, but Jasson was approved! A few weeks later he arrived for a whirlwind 2 1/2 week tour of

      Miracles come in all shapes & sizes

      Our scholarship students are amazing! Here is a brief story about one of our graduates, Kathy, who is now a dentist. When our June team was in Peru, we had a Peruvian couple working with us on a house build. Everyone noticed how hard they worked, and unlike us, they really knew what they were doing. They were with us every day that we built, and wanted nothing in return. Who were these mystery volunteers? They are the parents of two of our amazing scholarship students....

      Tears of joy...Alicia from her mentor's eyes

      I would love to tell you a story about a girl that has overcome incredible odds in her life. At 13 years old, Alicia lost her mom suddenly because of a car accident which left her lost and afraid. She was raised by her father and two older sisters who were just teenagers themselves. Alicia moved to Lima from the mountains of Peru to in hopes of more opportunities. Alicia had no idea what God had in store for her. She lives in a small room with her older sister who is expecti

      The evolution of Basilia...be bold.

      Meet Basilia. Basilia was born into a poor family of eleven children in the mountains of Peru. Her parents were so poor that they brought her and some of her siblings to a girl's home (Hope House) in the district of Lima in the hope of a better future. I met her when she was about to turn 18, the age when you were forced to leave the Hope House. Joy and Don Norris, American missionaries living in Peru at the time and were bold in asking short term missionaries to help th
