Climbing Mountains Together

Chiquita and Angela who have been matched for three years exude complete joy when they are together. This means a lot considering all the distractions Chiquita faces at home where she helps take care of her three brothers. Angela and Chiquita are best friends and bond over laughter. With Angela’s unconditional support Chiquita has learned how to deal with some very serious emotions and allow herself to be vulnerable in expressing them. She has also learned the importance of setting goals and sticking to them. Chiquita says: “Angela keeps me on the straight. When I want to turn to the right or left, she reminds me what my dreams are and inspires me to keep straight.
