Dear One Mind One Heart Family,
Thank you for your patience, your love, and your continued support.
During our recent visit with the children at the orphanages, we were once again reminded how deeply moving it is to be present with them in person. This experience allowed us to truly witness and understand their current emotional, physical, and educational needs—and reaffirmed why this mission matters so profoundly.
Spending time with the children brought clarity, inspiration, and a renewed commitment to serve in the most meaningful and responsible way possible.
Since returning home, we have been thoughtfully reorganizing our website and laying the foundation for several new projects, each directly inspired by what we witnessed during this visit. Every decision is guided by one intention: to create greater stability, care, healing, and opportunity for the children and the devoted staff who support them every single day.
🌍 A New Vision: Preparing for the Future
During this trip, one realization became very clear:
We must help prepare these children for life beyond the orphanage.
As many of them approach adolescence and adulthood, they need real tools to succeed in the working world and to build independent, dignified lives.
From this realization, two key initiatives were born.
💻 1. English Education Program
We are launching an online English education program for 15 adolescents, giving them a critical tool for employment, confidence, communication, and independence.
To make this possible, we will:
• Renovate a second-floor space into a dedicated classroom
• Furnish it with desks and chairs
• Purchase 15 computers and headphones
• Provide reliable internet access
• Fund ongoing English instruction
✨ This classroom will become far more than a room—it will be a bridge to opportunity and a brighter future.
🧁 2. Pastry Training & Workforce Transition Program
One of the most urgent challenges we witnessed is what happens when adolescents turn 18.
At that point, they must leave the orphanage—often without a safe place to go, stable employment, or the support needed to transition into adulthood.
In response, we are launching a professional pastry training and workforce transition program:
• Developed with Chef Patricia Flores
• Supported through local government certification
• In collaboration with local hotels to help create employment opportunities
The first pilot group will include 15 adolescents between the ages of 16–17 and will combine:
• Professional pastry training
• English as a second language
To make this possible, we need to:
• Adapt and fully equip a kitchen
• Provide baking supplies and materials
• Cover training costs (offered at a special reduced rate for the children)
💛 Your support can directly change the trajectory of their lives.
✨ Bringing the Children to the 10-Day Healing Event
As the June 8–17, 2026, 10-Day Healing Event at Barceló approaches, we are preparing something truly meaningful.
We are working to bring:
• 22 children from Cancún
• 12 children from Chetumal, including children living with severe neurological and physical conditions such as cerebral palsy
This effort includes:
• A 5.5-hour journey from Chetumal to the Barceló complex for the children and caregivers
• Full staff accompaniment
• Onsite lodging and support during the healing sessions
We will be covering:
• Transportation
• Lodging
• Full staff and logistical support
In addition, we are sponsoring three families from different regions of Mexico so their medically challenged children—ages 2, 4, and 10, each facing complex neurological conditions—can attend and receive healing support during the final three days of the event.
We will also be covering travel expenses for the children and their parents so they may fully participate in the healing sessions.
More information about these families and their journeys will be shared shortly.
This opportunity allows the children to experience in-person healing sessions that may have a profound impact on their emotional and physical well-being.
We have personally witnessed the transformation these children experience during these sessions—moments often described as nothing short of extraordinary.

🌱 What We Have Recently Accomplished
🤝 Collaboration & NeuroChange Solutions Training
In collaboration with to Give to Give Foundation and el Corazon del Maestro Foundation, we supported the NeuroChange Solutions training inspired by Dr. Joe Dispenza.
• Over 60 staff members, leaders, and caregivers participated
• Participants experienced deep personal transformation
• Greater alignment was created in how they support and care for the children
We also introduced Dr. Joe’s meditations adapted specifically for children and translated into Spanish for different age groups.
✨ The results were extraordinary:
• Increased emotional awareness
• Greater calm and emotional regulation
• More openness to learning and connection
🎨 Art That Heals and Gives Back
During our visit, we brought back over 50 beautiful paintings created by the children as part of their art therapy program.
Painting allows them to express, release, and heal.

✨ Together, We Make This Possible
We are profoundly grateful to walk this journey with you—with one mind and one heart.

Every child deserves the opportunity to feel safe, supported, empowered, and loved. Together, we are helping create futures filled with hope, healing, dignity, and possibility.
