Helping Hand October 2010-Placida

Prepared by Isis
HELPING HAND RECIPIENT:
Placida Vanegas is a 70 year old woman living in Choluteca Honduras. Placida lost her husband over 17 years ago. Without resources or family that is able to help her, certain necessities have been hard to obtain.

HELPING HAND NEED:
Placida has a true need for a good bed as she has been very uncomfortable with her current situation which has not been good for her health or her body. Providing a mattress and a blanket is a simple outreach that will help Placida, making life and sleep a little more comfortable.

THOUGHTS FROM PLACIDA:
After my husband died, my daughter moved away and I have not had contact with her. I am grateful for my neighbors who have provided meals to me as I cannot work; they are very kind. I thank you for doing this for me. I was in real need of the mattress and the blankets make the cold nights a little easier. God bless you and your factory.
