Dear Friends, I wish you all the best in New Year. I wish that all your dreams come true in the New Year and your life be filled with joy and happiness.
My name is Valentin. I'm student and live with my mother in small city in Russia. My mother is invalide. She cannot see and she receive pension from the government very rare which is not enough even for medications. I work very hard every day to be able to buy the necessities and medications for my mother, but my salary is very small, because my studies still not finished. Due to the crisis, authorites stopped gas in our suburb and we cannot heat our home anymore. I do not know what to do, because the weather is minus 15 degrees Celsius already and radio says it will be up to minus 25 during the next month. I'm very afraid that if the temperature will be lower than 0 degree in our sleeping room, we will not survive. I applied to local Red Cross and they explained me that many people ask them for help every day and they cannot help to each family. They adviced me to search help from individuals. Thanks to free Internet access in our local library, I found several addresses, including yours and I decided to appeal to you with a prayer in my heart for a small help. If you have any old used sleeping bag, warm blanket, warm clothes for winter, portable heater, canned food, vitamins, water boiler, medicines against cold weather, any hygiene products, I will be very grateful you if you could send it to our home address: Valentin Mikhailin, Rileewa Ulica 6-45 Kaluga, 248030 Russia. If you think that it would be better or easier for you to help with some money, please writes me back to my free e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I will provide you with details how to send it safely, if you agree. This way to help is very good, because in this case I will be able to buy a portable stove and heat our home during the winter. I hope to hear from you very soon and I pray that you can help us. I also hope very much that this hard situation will become better in our country very soon. >From all my heart, I wish you a Happy New Year. Valentin, Kaluga. Russia.
