Humanitarian Project


This is a proposed project. This is a foster home and they have 9 children and one of their own. The father has made bunk beds for the children--four to a room. The ages range from 4 years to teenagers. Their home had such a loving feeling and they are doing such good work for these children--I hope we can get the project approved. They requested a freezer, vacuum cleaner, and two clothes closets. Simple wants!!






Three little Belarussian grandmas live in these small rooms. The church provided for each of them a night stand and closet for their clothes and a table to share. The were so appreciate this little lady just keep kissing my hand and saying, "thank you, thank you." It just feels so good to help people with such simple needs and so appreciative.

Great pictures! It is so fun to see the people that you've told us about. Looks like you better start dressing a little more colorfully to fit in with the ladies...

It puts life into perspective to see what others have. I should never complain (but I'm sure I still will!)

Maybe you will have to bring home a Belarusian baby for me from one of the orphanges!

That is all very interesting. These are the type of things I would never thought about needed to be done or how would someone even do them. Thank you for doing what you are doing and for keeping us informed. By the way we are in California watching grandkids at a swim meet. The pool is outside and the temperture is about 65 degrees. Not like where you are at, uh.
