Help 51 Elderly, Homeless Women Have a Home
Organization information
Damas de Caridad de San Vicente de Paul
Location: Ciudad Autonoma de Buenos Aires, Argentina
Summary
Minimum-wage workers in Argentine do not receive enough monthly social security to cover the cost of living. Housing these elderly necessarily falls to their families. And if they have no family? Hogar Santa Ana (HSA) houses fifty-one elderly and family-less women who would otherwise be homeless. Aside from room and board, HSA allows these elderly ladies to spend their final years in safety, in the joy of companionship and the dignity they deserve after a lifetime of hard work.
