Eileen, a CAP participant, living in a distressed, rented camper that has rotted floors and windows will soon be receiving a new home thanks to the generosity of our donors!
Eileen has special needs and has been unable to work for quite some time. She lives on a meager social security income each month and it’s not enough for her to afford better housing or repairs. She has a small propane cook stove, and an elderly neighbor helps provide her with food and water. Eileen’s neighbor, Mary, brings water to her during the winter or runs a hose from her own house, located nearby. Eileen also uses an electric heater powered by an extension cord from her neighbor, which is a safety concern. Eileen’s camper is unlivable and unrepairable. It has a leaky roof, no running water or electricity, and very limited space.
No person should live in conditions like this, especially a woman with special needs. But now, thanks to the help of caring friends like you, new hope is on the horizon.
UPDATE: Thanks to your ongoing support, we have reached our goal for Eileen. Together we can change lives! Please keep Eileen and others like her in your prayers.
