Thank you so much for the truck you have sent. It is a great load and it will be very useful for the area and for the people in need.

    More and more people now are in difficulty and  more people are desperate for food and help.

    I have a lot of requests, but  I am not able to reply to all of them, because I can do only so much.

    Today the Child protection agency asked me if I can take 3 more children in the house. They come from a family and otherwise they will go to a state-orphanage where things are still very bad.  It was a girl of 2 years old, a boy of 4 and another girl of 9 and they were all brothers.   So I was very sorry to tell them that I have no means of helping them at all. Our house Casa Iona is full.

    I am trying to help the mother of 6 children (of which we have 3 children now in Casa Ioana) as she is desperate and has no place to go and soon she will be on the streets with her 3 other children.

    I am also very impressed of how many people kill themselves nowadays in Romania. It is more and more on the news and today it was 2 (in Botosani only) and I am surprised of that. One of them was a young girl (21 years old) who was pregnant and she killed herself.

Many kill themselves because the bank is taking their house and they need to go on the street. The Romanian authorities have no program of helping such people at all. In my church by next year 5 families will loose their house which will be taken by the banks.

    A lot of businesses are closing down and the ones that keep working make very small progress and do not survive for a very long time. I have taken the drivers of the truck Peter (Spaans)and (Haye) Nicolay through the town and showed them how many shops are for rent or for sale. This is because businesses can not afford to keep going on.

There are a lot of houses for sale and much land and many flats. The prices are almost 50% off  from what it was 2 years ago. So now properties do not sell and this is a blocked market.

    I have spoken also to The Child Protection Agency and they have a special pale for young mums. Girls of 15 or 16 get pregnant and the parents do not want the girl home anymore. So she is to go on the street. So the Child Protection Agency has her for 3 month and then she will be on the street.

 

    Most of the food from the truck will go to the people in Hiliseu Horia, sultana's included.

    Hospital things went to the hospital in Dorohoi. The director from there called me and asked me to help as much as we can, so almost all of it is gone there.

    The hospital beds and a lot of wheelchairs are for another small hospital In Dumbraveanu. I know the  administrator there, so he asked for some help too.

    So, this time we helped 2 hospitals.

 Well, Thank you again to you and your team for all your effort and all you sacrifice.

 

 Thank you so much,

 Cristi
