Gabriel's Adoptive family receives freezer

Although Tona and Santos, who have taken in Gabriel and his mother, give generously to their home's newest residents, money is tight. Santos has been without a job for weeks after the store for which he worked selling ice cream stopped selling it. In order to help the family and give Santos a steady source of work, we purchased a freezer for Santos, graciously funded by Tin Roof Foundation (www.tinroof.org). Now, the ice cream business is in Santos' hands, offering bigger profits and responsibility. Another family in town has agreed to leave the freezer in their house, as the electricity in Santos' house is not adequate. We hope that, with the generated income, Santos will be able to provide for his household's many member.

Oh, and we chipped in for the first batch of ice cream too. Yum!
