Old friends

Way back in 1999 when we first moved into LaMadone in town and there were only 75 kids in the Espwa family, Mr. Ferdy Mahfood, the founder of Food For The Poor, came to visit and saw the deplorable conditions of the place. We had the children sing a song of welcome. Ferdy turned to me and said, "Write me and tell me what you need." I did and Food For The Poor (FFP) came to our assistance big time. LaMadone is what it is today due to FFP's generous help. That was then. Food For The Poor has once again come to our aid in a huge way by agreeing to build homes for the children of Espwa at Castel-Pere. The photos below show you what good friends they continue to be for us. We are deeply grateful for their help.
