Georgina is a hardworking and very strong woman of 43 years, she is single mother life has been very hard on her and her children.  It’s easy to see that there is a day to day struggle for survival. Georgina earns her living by doing all sorts of odd jobs such as washing laundry by hand for different families or shelling peas. Because she does not have any education job opportunities are very limited.

 

When we met this family of 5 they were living in a small sheet metal room.  As with most homes of this type it’s very cold at night and difficult to keep the home dry during the rainy season.

 

Georgina is happy in her new home and gives thanks for the gift of having a secure block home for her and her children.
