The rest of the Mothers Day Baskets were given out to many families yesterday. One young girl came without her mother because the mother was too sick to get out of bed. We were happy that the family were going to have food to eat.
The old man in the photos is deaf and his wife is blind. It was raining so he did not want to bring her out of the house. They are a very poor couple, we have seen them often walking hand in hand down the street, the husband taking great care of his wife, we have also often seen them going through the trash at the market trying to find enough to eat, so we were very happy to include them in the Mothers Day baskets and this food will give them enough to eat for more than two weeks.
Thank you for everyone who donated to these baskets. It made a huge difference to the families that received them!
