Sami is continuing to heal and in part thanks to Joanne C. who responded quickly with a $200 donation that provided him and Bana the nutrition they were lacking. The family was running out of food when the donation came in. When I told Sami’s mom, Saja, that Joanne had sent money for her groceries, she was in despair: “I’m starting to feel hopeless. I really don’t know how I’m going to manage. I’ll go to sleep and wake up thinking about the food basket you’ll send us because we’re starting to run out of food.”

These are the pictures and video that followed:

Thank you, Joanne, for making this difference in Sami and Bana’s experience.
