Derek Carkner of Donner and Associates talks with Lisa and Billy (Memo), volunteers and board members of Refugio Infantil Santa Esperanza (RISE). The shelter is for infants and children under the age of 14 who have been turned over by DIF (Desarrollo Integral de la Familia), a Mexican government organization that is the legal representative for minors under the age of 14.
DIF’s main objective is to reintegrate these children with their families, but this is not always possible. RISE gives these children a safe and loving place to live.
