‘This old woman doesn’t have a house of her own. She sleeps in the Church. So I rented an apartment for her. I can’t do much work to cater for my widows, widowers, fatherless and old people again. So I need help. I find it very comfortable in helping people’.
‘ Infact am working for other people to live. Everybody in my church, in my community and in my family knows that I am a kind giver. I wrote a book in 2006,’The Reward in Giving to the Needy. The aim of my NGO is to care for the old people, widows, widowers, fatherless, motherless, orphans and poor people. Which I have started and the registration is in progress already’.
