Josué is a kind, sincere and generous 16 years old young man! After the death of his father, he was left with his drug addicted mother who was unable to take care of him.  As a result, he was sent to live with his elderly uncles.  In his uncles' home, Josué was falling behind academically because he didn't have the necessary support needed to develop and excel. He came to Oasis through the administrative staff at the high school where some of the oasis kids attend. They have observed how these Oasis boys have personal, educational and emotional support, and they knew Josué would benefit from this environment.  They contacted Josué's uncles who agreed that Oasis was the best place for him!  Josué has a great desire to finish his school, develop emotionally and spiritually as he learns more about God and grows closer to Him.

José Luis and his brother Martín are the new boys at oasis. The boys were brought to Oasis by their older brother, who had taken custody of them after they were taken from their mother due to drug addiction. He knew that Oasis was able to provide the boys with security and opportunities that he was unable to provide them. José Luis is very eager to learn all things! He is a very sweet and funny boy, but sadly, he has a hard time trusting people, but once that trust has been established, you have a forever friend!

Martín and his brother José Luis are the newest boys at Oasis. They were taken in by their older brother after being taken from their mother due to drug addiction problems. His older brother is already married, has his own family, and is unable to support the boys. They decided to take Martin and Jose Luis to Oasis because they want better opportunities for the boys, and they want them to be in a safe place where they don't lack anything to get ahead. Martín is a sweet and intelligent boy who loves to learn new things! He likes to read and would love to learn to play the guitar. He's a little slow to warm up, but once he has, he's very funny and a solid friend.
