Three sisters...
Argentina has very tough rules regarding outdoor activities during the COVID-19 pandemic. Most all commerce has stopped and most stay in quarantine at home. Some young people who receive support from Hope Star for their education have started to help others from home.
They are now doing homework that gives back to local villagers. Sisters Noelia, Micaela and Rocío sew face masks of clothing they stopped wearing. The masks are then distributed to the needy in the village. What good news.
Facundo...
Facundo, who is studying to become a police officer, bakes the popular deep-fried bread "torta frita". It is served together with the drink “mate cocido,” which is a kind of herbal tea, he gives this to the children in the neighborhood. Facundo talks about his baking:
“I am very grateful to Star of Hope for all the help I received since I was little. Now I want to give something back and bake bread to the neighboring children who have it worse. It's just fun to help.” Nice!
