A New Harvest

There are people who, for whatever reason, lose everything. Rodrigo was one of them. But there was one thing he didn't lose, and that was hope.

Rodrigo has lost his family home due to a devastating tornado. Surrounded by rubble, he almost gives up. But then he remembers his father's words of encouragement and finds the strength to build a new life. He slowly developed the confidence to start again and bring hope to lonesome, vulnerable, and homeless people. Thanks to the love he felt for his family and for his land, he recovered the illusion and hope. In turn, he found help and cooperation in others who were going through the same situation as him. Together, they gathered a new crop full of fruits that served to find their home in the world. Little by little, Rodrigo's farm became a place where people in need came for help: a place where they could heal the wounds that nobody could see.
