Hello everyone, as you know I am doing community service in Shkodra, Albania, at the house "Santa Maria" for women victims of violence. It is a Home where every woman receives listening, psychological and emotional support is a family as all should be: a place to be loved and not to feel fear. After a few months of starting the service, this house has turned into my family, which is why I decided to help them in this fundraiser they have activated, to repay them for the welcome and love I breathe every day. As you well know, the car turns out to be an indispensable asset for every family, especially when you have many young children, as in this case. It is essential for them to have a means of transportation to be able to take the children to daycare, go shopping and all the other activities that mark the daily life of each of us, and their car has now broken down because it is too old and the expense of getting a new one is high and they cannot do it alone.Many of the women taken in, are from neighboring countries to Shkodra, in which public transportation does not arrive, so having a car becomes the only opportunity to be able to reconcile with their family of origin. A donation from you will be a precious gift to this large family. I thank you from now for the help and time you have chosen to give us.
