This is Mrs. Febriana. She is 37 years old and a widow with 4 children. Her husband just ran off with another woman and left her with her children. She works as a house helper but not as a live-in.Sometimes she works for a day washing clothes and gets paid 30,000 IDR or $1,66 USD per wash.
The other woman is named Dini. She is 17 years old and a 10th grade high school student. She lives withher older brother. They are orphans. They don’t have a father or a mother. Her brother works as a porter at the market. I helped her by giving her basic food supplies and also cash to buy her school books because she will start school tomorrow for the new academic year. She was so happy because she could buy new books and a new school bag. Because her brother is rarely in home, sometimes she sleeps in her neighbor house.
