HELPING HAND RECIPIENT:
Fernando Diaz is a 43 year old man living in Choluteca. He and his lovely wife Jobita have 6 children together, ranging in age from 10-21. Fernando has a small field he works on near the river in Choluteca. He plants corn, beans and bananas that he can sell in order to provide for his family and home. A few years ago Fernando’s field was devastated by a hurricane causing Fernando to have to start fresh. He is an extremely hard worker that is committed to paying for his children’s education and supporting their future.
HELPING HAND NEED:
On a daily basis Fernando can be seen walking around the neighborhood and around the city selling the beans, corn and banana’s he has so carefully grown. After speaking to him, Fernando expressed his need for quicker transportation in order to sell his items and would love to eventually have a bike of his own. That was an easy request and we were happy to help Fernando get that bike to ease the task of selling and hauling his items around. Fernando and his family were extremely grateful for the bike and were excited to use it for some other tasks to make life a little easier.
THOUGHTS FROM FERNANDO:
“It was a great surprise when they told me that they were going to give me a bike. My children were so excited they started jumping up and down. I thank you for all your help and believe me, this bike will be so important to me so I can sell my good quickly. Thanks and God bless you.”
