An unusual request

Posted by hopevillage on March 22, 2011 at 12:48 AM

We are helping a very special family called Harold, Inga and Chifunero.  We help Chifinero with milk and we have found a sponsor for the family which helps them with food.  We are helping them because both Harold and Inga are blind.  Thanks to another donation we received in for this family we have been able to get them mats to sleep on and mosquito nets and very soon we will be building them a house.  They live in a house with a grass roof at the moment and when it rains the rain just pours through the roof and they have to stand up against the wall to avoid getting wet, so we are excited to be able to help them with a new dry house.  We are also trying to get Harold some materials that he needs to start his own little business of making mats so that they can earn a small income.

 

Harold has asked me if I could try and get him a bible or any other books in brail.  Can you help?  Do you have any connections that would be able to help with this request.  He went to a school for the blind when he was younger and knows how to read brail so if you can help, please get in touch.
