Village children

When helping a family find her adoptive child family I was able to see how the local village children live. We have pick three village to help and will deliver clothes and medical supplies. Food is available for these children. Most village are full of children.  Our goal in 2004 is two provide food for the children and too help these families. Because of the early freeze in April most of these families lost their crops.

This is the outside of the a typical home. The house has been subdivided into two homes for a typical family size of 5-6. The village has not inside plumbing and still use the old fashion toilets. They do have a single water line outside for bathing and cleaning The houses line up on both sides of a dirt road. Typical the villagers sit outside and socialize.
