Sorry

Together we can and we will overcome our problems.

Hello, my name is Henrique Alves, and I am here to tell you the story of my life. I am fifteen years old. I have a brother and a sister and both are younger than me.

I was born in December 2000 in a city called Cuiabá. In 2012 my dad started a plan to come and live here in the U.S. The first time that I arrived in America was in 2014 on vacation in January and I spent 22 days in Orlando.

In 2015 the economic crisis arrived in Brazil and my father stayed without work for one whole year just making contacts to get investors in a new business that a friend showed him.

One year after that first contact my father arrived in this country, and four months ago my brothers, my mom, and I arrived.

Here in our new home we are facing many difficulties, but together we can and we will overcome those problems.
