Meet Leontina Chabaziza

Today we received some bad news about one of our widows. Leontina Chabaziza passed out (from lack of food) during her time working in the fields and hurt herself very badly. Leontina's knees were injured and she can not stand nor walk. This means she cannot work.  

Leontina is in her 50s and has been a widow for two years. She gave birth to six kids but only one remains alive. Her hardest week is when she lost her daughter, then one week lost her husband and grandchild the same day. When her daughter died she knew she couldn't care for her child so she tried to put the child in a orphanage but  they refused the child. The baby ended up starving to death the same day her husband passed away from illness. Now in her house their are six children who are from other relatives who have passed away. Now with this injury she has no way of feeding these children. This is why we want her to have a small business. She wouldn't have to walk far distances to do hard back breaking work. She would make more money then she does now. We want to bless all our widows before we leave with a small business. To get each widow a small business it would cost a total of $500 ($50 per widow). Please pray and see if you can give to our widows.
