Double the Hope — El Ayudante’s Year-End Matching Challenge
A Story of Transformation
In 2004, eight-year-old Chilo was being raised by her grandmother in Nicaragua. Most nights, she and her two sisters went to bed hungry. None of them were in school — uniforms and supplies were beyond reach. Poverty had written a story for them that felt impossible to change.
Then El Ayudante stepped in.
For the first time, Chilo had her own school uniform, nutritious meals, and proper healthcare. Tutors and mentors believed in her, but more importantly, she discovered the hope found in Jesus.
Because of friends like you, Chilo and her twin sister became the first in their family to graduate high school — and today, they own their very own home. Chilo’s dream didn’t stop there. She longed to serve others as a nurse, just as she had once been served. With perseverance and the help of El Ayudante donors, she graduated from college in 2021 and now works at a dialysis clinic near León, bringing healing, hope, and the love of Jesus to her community.
Your Gift Can Write the Next Chapter
This Christmas season, your generosity can double its impact.
Our 2025 Year-End Matching Campaign means that every dollar you give will be matched dollar for dollar — up to $75,000 — thanks to the most generous matching grant we’ve ever received.
That means every gift you make will work twice as hard to:
Feed children with nutritious meals
Provide safe housing and essential healthcare
Support education that transforms futures
Share the life-changing hope of Jesus
When you give by December 31, 2025, your gift will help children like Chilo break the cycle of poverty and step into a brighter future for their families and communities.
Double Your Blessing
Wrigley’s Doublemint gum once promised to “double your pleasure, double your fun.”
El Ayudante can’t promise gum — but we can promise that your giving will go twice as far in transforming lives.
