Several elderly persons in the Mount Barclay Community in Paynesville benefited from a humanitarian group known as Sharing and Caring Hands Organization on Unification Day, May 14, 2022.
The old folks mainly physically challenged people gathered in a hall in the Mount Barclay Community and were presented items such as rice, towels and clothing from the newly established non-governmental organization that is mostly involved with helping the elderly and physically challenged people in rural Montserrado County.
Speaking at the program, the founder of the Sharing and Caring Hands Organization, Clara Saint-Jean, explained that she made the donation because she had been blessed by God and had enough to share.
According to her, helping older people is a privilege of more blessings for her, adding that she developed the idea to help both older people and those that are physically challenged because they mostly need help than others.
Madam Saint-Jean emphasized that this was not the organization’s initial donation to old folks as few months ago, they made similar donation to different groups of old folks.
Meanwhile, Madam Saint-Jean promised to build a modern nutrition health center for less-privileged baby mothers, because according to her, the organization will use locally made food products to help in the reduction of mal-nutrition and infant mortality rate.
At the end of the program beneficiaries thanked the charity and its organizers for reaching out in terms of their needs and pleaded with the organizers to return and do more for them.
