ALT He was originally from the small municipality of Azacualpa. The town’s people live mostly in poverty and there aren’t a lot of jobs, Hector said. Many in the community saw migrating to the United States as one of the few ways to secure a better life. Maynor helped his family financially after coming to the U.S., sending $600 to $800 each month enabling the family to run a small hotel. The family was able to rise from poverty because of him, Hector said. He also helped care for his twelve nephews and nieces, Hector said. It’s because of Maynor that they were able to go to school rather than work. Maynor made sure they had what they needed, that they had food at their table. The rest of Maynor’s salary supported him, his wife and two children. One of them was Alexa, his five-year-old daughter.
