HELPING HAND-FEB2012- CABRERA FAMILY

Prepared by Isis-
HELPING HAND RECIPENT:  As a mother of 4 children living in Choluteca Honduras, Gladys Cabrera works hard cleaning houses and washing clothes, to provide for her family. We actually met Gladys in a park, we were observing her happy, playful children and just happened to ask them a few questions regarding their schooling. They informed us they do not attend school because their mother could not afford the fees associated. We asked the children to introduce us to their mother.
HELPING HAND NEED: After meeting Gladys, we realized her struggles are ones very common to Honduras, she lacks the funds she needs to send her children to school. After speaking to Gladys she did invite us to her home and then we took her shopping for uniforms and all the necessary school supplies for her children.

THOUGHTS FROM GLADYS: “I was thinking about the season of school and I did not know how I could possible let my 4 children attend. I had taken my children to the park near a house I was cleaning, and I am just so grateful that you met my children. I am so grateful for this help and mostly to see how happy my children were and the smiles on their faces when they found out they would be attending school. It is so amazing how God works, bless all of you and I hope you can continue to help more families like us.”
