Silia Garza - YFC Tamaulipas Executive Director

Project: In this area of Mexico, directly across the border from the southern most tip of Texas the challenge has been great for those living in this area of Mexico.  In Silia’s hometown of Valle Hermoso with a population of over 80,000 there are no police officers…not one.  The elected officials have fled the country.  One drug cartel rules the city and the local citizens manage as best they can.  In this environment Silia wants to help her people by starting a food bank.  Silia says over 60% of the people are unable to feed their families properly.  She already has support from local merchants and strongly believes Gods leading in this project.  YFC kids can help with the labor at the food bank.  They will also see that if God gives you a dream, He will help you accomplish that dream.  Silia wants to make a difference in Jesus’ name in her area of influence!
