My Story

Claudio Zamir is the younger brother of Fernando, one of our beloved children at Open Arms.

His parents are a young couple determined to build a different kind of home than the ones they grew up in—one marked by unity, love, and stability. Even without a healthy family background of their own, they work hard every day to give their boys the childhood they never had. Both parents carry significant responsibility. Claudio’s dad drives heavy machinery, and his mom runs a small food stand—a job she used to juggle while also caring for her children. But working next to a highway made it unsafe to keep the boys with her, no matter how much she tried. They needed a safe place, and we are grateful that Open Arms can step into that gap. Today, both parents can work with peace knowing Claudio and Fernando are protected, nurtured, and loved.

Please pray that Jesus continues to be the center of this home, strengthening their unity and guiding this family into a hopeful future.
