Family of five needs winter clothing
Expires in 3 months
The reason: Armando came to Chicago, from Puerto Rico, when he was 18. He's lived in Humboldt Park since then. Armando contacted RTG because he feels that he has reached a low point unlike ever before: he can't provide for his family and he can't find work.
Working as an electrician and doing some construction work, Armando has always been able to scrounge up some cash when needed. He talked to his boss about the current situation, and his boss agreed that things have never been this bad. Armando’s main focus is his children: Jannette (will be 17 Dec 21st), Jonathan (10), and Jennifer (6). They need clothes, winter coats, and boots. Armando shared that his son gets made fun of at school because he and his siblings dress in hand-me-downs; watching his children struggle with bullies has made Armando feel helpless, he feels he has no where else to turn. Still, he knows he's not the only one going through difficulties and he will be so grateful for any help for his kids.
Armando is asking for clothes, coats, and boots for his three children and a coat for his wife, Sonia. Wanting nothing himself, Armando just needs to help his family. He called back after the interview to mention how much his family would appreciate a computer for their schoolwork.
