Cheryl’s Life at Bello Machre
Cheryl found love, safety, and belonging at Bello Machre—a home for life made possible through your support.
Can you feel the joy that Cheryl radiates?
Cheryl came to Bello Machre 25 years ago. After her dad had a stroke and her mom’s health began to fail, Cheryl was in desperate need of a home where she would be safe and loved. Click on the above video to hear Cheryl talk about her experience coming to Bello Machre. She remembers, “I was scared, and it was not easy at first. I missed my mom a lot. It helped me to share my lifetime story and tell others about the house I grew up in. My Family Living Director liked to hear my stories.”
Within the first few weeks, Cheryl was making friends and discovered that she was becoming part of a new family in her group home. Cheryl always liked to be out in the community interacting with people!
One day, something magical happened.
Check out the video below (Cheryl’s Story: Chapter 2) to see how her life changed many years ago.
