2014, retirees Marilyn and Les Widd, started visiting local children's
homes in their new community of Rosarito, Mexico. The original goal was
to simply help feed and clothe the children being housed in these
under-funded facilities. Soon though, the three homes they were helping
to support, turned into eight and then twelve. As more homes came
forward seeking assistance, the need to create a Networking Organization
became apparent.
At the end of 2015, Hearts of Baja was formed
to combine efforts and help support the Children of Baja Norte. Hearts
Of Baja Children's Network a 501(c)(3) NoProfit EIN 30-0991203 became a
reality.
What Les and Marilyn came to learn was more about the
relationship between the local children living in intact families and
the rise and fall of the population in the Homes/Orphanages. As the
economy and tourism ebb and flow so do the number of children living
there. During the terrible fires of 2017 and the floods caused by heavy
rains in early 2018, it was apparent that most children living in the
Homes were thriving compared to those whose homes were incinerated or
washed away. Thus, the goals for Hearts of Baja evolved to include as
many children as funding allowed, whether living in a group home or not.
