Since returning home from Guatemala, we have been looking over our budget and thinking about how we could help some of the families we met. After a lot of thought and going over our budget we have taken on sponsoring a 2, almost 3, yr. old girl for preschool. We are also sending what we are able to help with purchasing food for the elderly couple who received one of the stoves we installed. When the man is able to find work, the pay is very little, so is often seen going through the trash, looking for food, to take home for himself and his wife. To provide food for this couple for a month cost about $75 to $100. As mentioned above, we are sending what we can but don't have the means in our budget to cover the cost for providing food for the whole month. If any one is interested in helping to provide this elderly couple, please leave a comment here, with an e-mail so I can send you the needed information. We will continue to do what we can but would be overjoyed to have someone to help co-sponsor this couple, so that they can be provided with food to eat, that is rotted and from the trash. God's blessing be with all of you.
You can see a photo of the elderly couple in my post from April 4th, titled "The last 2 stoves. It is the last photo posted under that title.
