Dear Friend,

I send you this message from a library of our small city and I hope very much that this message has reached your address.

My name is Valentin, I'm a student and I live with my blind mother in Russia. I work very hard every day to be able to take
care of my mother, but my salary is very small because my studies are not finished.

Due to the crisis our authorities stoped gas in our village and now I cook food for my mother and me by making a fire near
our home. Now we cannot heat our home because we don't have gas anymore and I don't know what to do, because the winter is
coming and the temperature outside will be minus 30 degrees Celsius. I'm afraid that the temperature inside our home can be
lower than 0 degrees and we will not be able to survive.

Therefore I send you this desperate message with a prayer in my heart and I hope you can help us. If you have any old warm
blankets, sleeping bags, portable heater or any other things which can help us during the winter, as well as any
high-calories food-stuffs, I will be very grateful to you if you could send it to our postal address which is:

Valentin Mihailin,
Ryleeva Street, 6-45,
Kaluga. 248030,
Russia.

If you think that it would be better or easier for you to help with some money, please write me back and I will give you
the details for sending it safely if you agree. This way to help is very good because the necessities here are not very
expensive.

I pray to hear from you soon. From all my heart I wish you Happiness, Love and Peace.

God Bless You,

Valentin and my Mother Elena.
Kaluga. Russia.
