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.
