THE PEOPLE'S STORY
Luis is a carpenter who lives in LaCeiba, Honduras. He spent seven years and his entire life savings building his house with his own hands. In one night a mud slide destroyed his home and the entire neighborhood.  He hopes to rebuild his home as soon as possible.  Currently Luis works in the fields as a laborer for the United Fruit Company so he can support his family.  He also paints houses in his spare time to earn extra income.  Luis is married to Maria Bendek for 15 years and the couple have 3 children, Luce, Jorge, and Ana.  Luis and his family are now living with his sister Theressa until he can rebuild their home.  The cost to rebuild Luis' home is estimated at $75,000 USD.  All donations on behalf of Luis will be made to the Honduras National Bank in LaCeiba under the name "Donations for Luis Zelya".
