Hava Isakova is 79 years old and has osteoporosis that is so severe she can no longer stand straight. She loses her breath easily and has a benign tumor growing on her face. She was told it would be more dangerous to remove it than to leave it alone.
She lives alone in a tiny house in Kuba, Azerbaijan with no family or caring friends to help her.
As a young woman, Hava raised her children who now live in Russia and Israel – and worked a variety of menial jobs. Today, all she has to show for her life’s work is a small pension of $106 a month. She cannot afford to heat her home and buy food, and must choose one or the other.
But now,thanks to the generous gifts from partners of IFCJ Canada, Hava receives a food card, medicine and winter relief. A homecare worker also visits twice a week and helps Hava with cleaning, cooking, laundry and keeping this lonely elderly woman company.
Thank you for brightening her spirit by opening your heart!
