Meet Eduardo
Eduardo and his family live just outside the city of Mérida on the Yucatán peninsula. Like many of their neighbors, their house has a dirt floor and no running water. Many days there is not enough to eat. But Eduardo is happy that his family is together – because to him, family is everything. Eduardo has asthma and should see a doctor routinely and get medicine to help him breathe. You can help Eduardo and others like him in the shanty towns outside Mérida.
