Jorge and Ana Maria came to us last week. Currently, neither of them are working due to medical reasons and they are struggling to pay the rent and feed their six children.
Awhile ago, Jorge got sick and needed to go to the doctor. The medicine he needed to take in order to cure his illness was very expensive. The family is still paying off these expenses. Recently, he started suffering from pain in his kidneys. This pain has prevented him from working.
Ana Maria suffers from stomach pain that has been persistent ever since she gave birth to her last child, 2 months ago. They do not have enough money to see a doctor, let alone feed their family.
Their six children, all under the age of 10, are not attending school at the moment due to the lack of necessary resources.
The family's most urgent needs right now are food and medical attention for Jorge and Ana Maria. It costs U$150 to provide food for this family for one month. Sending Jorge and Ana Maria to a good private doctor will cost U$100 for both of them.
