Free housing will soon be available for DREAMers—illegal immigrants who came to the U.S. as children—attending the University of Texas-Pan American (UTPA).
The Dream Homes initiative, the latest project by nonprofit organization Sand2Pearl, will provide rent-free housing to undocumented UTPA students in South Texas. The home, located within walking distance to UTPA’s campus, will open in August and house seven undocumented students during the 2015-2016 academic year.
“The number of Dreamers who will benefit in August will be seven, but the students who will ultimately benefit will be countless," Sarah Chavez, executive director of Sand2Pearl, told NBC News.
Chavez and her friend Patricia Estrada announced their plan to open the “Dream Home” at a community meeting in early March where they discussed the initiative with the public and encouraged interested students to apply. According to Chavez and Estrada, both former UTPA students who worked together on Wendy Davis’ Democratic gubernatorial campaign, there are roughly 800 undocumented students currently enrolled at UTPA.

Too busy licking RickPAC envelopes for Haley Barbour.
No conservative could support Rick Perry. But I can see where liberals would love him.
Great deal-—I wish it was available for my grandchildren,but they don’t matter anymore.
