HELPING HAND - MAY 2012 - OLIVIA ZELAYA

PREPARED BY ISIS
HELPING HAND RECIPIENT:  Olivia Zelaya is a lady of 67 years old who loss her husband last year. She lives in a humble home and has for the past 13 years.  The owners of the house are allowing her to stay until build additional homes on the land.  To provide for herself, Olivia runs a small grocery store, and sales firewood. 



HELPING HAND NEED: While we were in her home we noticed how many people in the neighborhood appreciate her and they buy supplies in her small grocery store although there are others grocery around her. She does not make enough money to buy a lot of product to sell. It is also hard for her to stand for long periods of time or walk far distance because of injuries she suffered in an accident 3 years ago. In order to make her more money and for her neighbors to continue to buy from her store we felt that she needed additional products and more of what she is already selling.



THOUGHTS FROM OLIVIA: Miracles do exist and you are part of them. Maybe you do not realize the impact that this help has in our lives. I hope that you can always help people, families and children. I pray for you and I know that God will always bless you so that you can continue to help more people
