2 examples of helping hands
Shida Hamisi, about 8 years old from Kenya / Mombasa
Shida comes from a family of 8 children. The father died in February at a traffic accident. The youngest child is only a year old. All 9 people live in a mud hut with one room next to a garbage dump. Your home but can not use the last 2 months because a venomous snake has taken root there, which no one could kill. They now sleep outside under a tree. Shida and his older brother Boniface (11) go to the Glee Needy School. Both are, according to the teacher, who drew attention to the plight of the family, very good and diligent student. After the death of the father is now trying the eldest of the sons (16) to continue his father's profession, and he figures carved in stone. This provides only a very small income and not nearly enough for the livelihood of the family. It is very helpful that Shida and Boniface are provided in school meals. Half of the monthly sponsor money comes to the school so that the lunch of the children is assured. The other 10 € in the form of food parcels passed directly to the family, especially with what this family with the small Children is of great importance.
Hassan, Albania / Elbasan
No one knows exactly how old he is, but it is believed that he is in his 60s. Hassan eats at the Day Center, the soup kitchen of A2B in Elbasan and also brings food for his family home. He has a mentally ill woman who is often palpable, also a son and a handicapped blind mother. Hassan seeks bread remains in the trash of the streets, which he sells as animal feed. We are not sure whether he and his family would survive without the help of A2B and Helping Hands.
