LIFT Annual Report 2014: What Matters Most | Page 43

“Back in Colombia, I was
part of a group that would
go to the villages outside
Cartagena and talk to people
who were less fortunate. It
was very discouraging. Here,
it’s different. Because of the
public benefits in the United
States there’s so much more
we can do, and that opens up
opportunities.”
