Today we gave out food, clothing, shoes and blankets in Santa Catarina. We didn't have enough for all the people ....so the ones in the most need were chosen and brought in.
The people were very grateful to receive anything. The aid that Mayan Families brought in was the first aid and food that they have received.
We were fortunate to have several volunteers come to help us. We were also fortunate that the rain stopped and the sun came out. We are in need of a lot more food and we need to be able to buy traditional clothing for the people of this village. We will buy it secondhand but they are in need of clothing. Many people have only the clothes they were wearing when they evacuated. Many people lost their shoes in the deep mud.
Thank you for all the donations that we have received that has made this possible to help the people in need. We need so much more food, if you can help , just a little please send a donation to http://www.mayanfamilies.org/DonateNow any amount ....no matter how small will help a family have something to eat.
