HELPING HAND NEED:
Blanca came asking for help after hearing of Helping Hands. Blanca has a piece of land near the river and recently starting building a house. Her funds are meager so she has built that house out of cardboard and plastic, because of the severe weather near the river this was not holding up properly for her family.
The helping hands team in Honduras assisted by reinforcing the Linares family home with sturdier walls that could protect her family from the conditions. The Linares family also was lacking a bathroom, so a bathroom was added as well.
THOUGHTS FROM BLANCA: “I am so impressed on how different my house looks. I am so happy and thankful for Helping Hands. My income goes to support my children, their education and our food so I never thought I would be able to fix my house. You do not know how much this help means to me and my family, we are greatly appreciative.”
