Irma, 42, and Irminia Reyes Lorenzo, 38, are sisters who've spent their whole lives in La Loma del Yaque, living in the same family home that's now falling apart. A zinc roof tied down with rope just to keep it from blowing off in a storm. No proper bathroom and rooting wood.
Together, they raise four children between them and get by harvesting guandules, work that barely covers food and basic needs. Through it all, they've held onto one hope: a safe, dignified home where their kids can grow up without fear.
