Helping hands

I can not read or write, but Fatima helps me to sort out my papers and certificates. Here I am showing her some documents I just requested for my handicapped children.

Fatima is a doctor at the local hospital and president of the regional office of the National Union of Moroccan Women. She asked several poor women in the area whether they would be interested in raising rabbits and I wanted immediately to join in.

Some women from the Ministry of Agriculture taught us how to take care of the rabbits, what to feed them and how to treat them against disease. Fatima visits us to check on the rabbits about once a week.
