[Elena]

Hello,
 
My name is Elena, I have 30-years and I live in small city in Russian province.
 
I have 6-years daughter, her father abandoned us and we live with my mother. Recently my mother lost job due to old age and our situation became very difficult.
 
During last months the prices for gas, oil and electricity became very high and we cannot use it to heat our home anymore.
 
The winter came to our region, we have many snow and temperature is very cold here already. We do not know what to do and we very afraid.
 
The only way to heat our home it is to use portable stove which give heat with burning wood. We have many wood in our region and this stove would heat our home the whole winter with minimal charges. But we cannot buy such stove in our local market because my salary is very small.
 
I work in library and after my job I allowed to use computer. I finded your address in internet and may be you can help us.
 
May be you have any old sleeping bag which you don't use anymore, I will be very grateful to you if you can donate its to us. I will give it to my daughter and it will keep her in warm during the nights. Please let me know if you can help and I will write you our address.
 
I downloaded picture of me and my daughter to the free website and you can see it here:

I hope to hear from you soon.
 
Elena.
