My name is Brandon. I came to the U.S. two years ago so that I could leave behind the violence in my city. I enjoy being in the U.S. I’m in school, I’m a good English speaker, I play the drums in my church worship team. While my family is poor, we are happy that we are together and that we have the opportunity to work and excel.
My name is Brian. I am 3 years old and am trying to reach my mother who lives in California. I look forward to seeing my mother.
My name is Damaris. I started my trip to the US with my grandmother but along the way we were taken over by criminals as we walked through the desert. I lost my grandmother and haven’t been able to find her but I continued on my journey so that I could be reunited with my mother in the U.S.
My name is Jason. I left my home because there were many gangs in my neighborhood that I didn’t know how else to escape. I’m hoping to be united with family in the U.S. I’m eager to learn English and to make something of myself. I want to see the ocean. I want to sleep on a bed.
My name is Julian. I’ve left my small village in Central America because there are not any educational opportunities for me. I want to become a doctor. I know it’s not going to be easy in the United States but I want to learn, to become educated, and to help others. I do not know English but I’m working hard to learn every opportunity I have. I enjoy music and playing Soccer. I love American food. I like the Seattle Seahawks.
