And at the request of Penny, here are a couple pictures of what your donations through PayPal have accomplished!

Old Tires


New Tires and the van that will received some much needed repairs



New/used freezer which needs more fish and chicken. :-)



The beautiful second refrigerator they found in the back shed and is now being repaired.

Penny said they were smiling BEFORE they loaded it into the back of her truck. :-)



And the spirit of continuing to fix up the surroundings is wonderful Here are Frederico and Brazio planting some new plants!



I can't believe how far this beautiful home has come since Penny and Murray discovered it and became involved. There has been so much help from some nomads and now with the paypal account, even more is being accomplished. Keep it up, please.

I love it! Fix the van up and go out for some hamburgers and ice cream.

Perfect. Practical and fun.

Come on folks, if you haven't pitched in yet, send a few bucks. I did because it's obvious the money is going directly to the people that need it and those that help them.

And even a small donation makes a world of difference.

Help out some old men, how great is that!

Of course, I admit, I identify with the cause. ;)

Thanks SFandH --- your donation along with the others IS making a difference and does go directly to their care.

And yes, some of us identify a bit too much . After Penny and Murray discovered this place we were referring to it as the home for the elderly gentleman. It was a close friend who suggested that elderly just hit home to easily so they became the grandpas.

And now, Penny's grandpas fits perfectly as they are family to her as she is to them.

Penny, I love seeing all the improvements that are happening to improve life for the grandpas! The greatest is being able to get them out and enjoy the little things in life!

Jbcoug, They are so much Happier Now!! Fresh Paint inside and out!! Tires for the van so we can get out and Enjoy Life, New/Used freezer, New/Used furniture, New/Used Refrigerator, So Many Nice clothes, New Beds, Plants around home, Yard clean, You won't recognize the place!! But the Most Important of all is they have a New sense of Pride, in the Home and Themselves!! No more wondering where their next meal is coming from, No more sitting in chairs waiting to die, they see Doctors on a Regular basis, and now having something to look forward to each day!!
If anyone of Us died tommorrow, we could Honestly say..We were Loved Unconditioally, and were All treated with Love, Respect and Dignity, and that includes Me!! So Much Love and Happiness in Our Hearts Now!!

Good Morning Nomads, I took a 2 week trip to Oregon to see my Momma, stopped at Grandpas on the way home, and here they came with canes, walkers, and wheel chairs, the Biggest Smiles I've ever seen to Welcome me home!!! This is Why I do this, So Much Love!!!
Since I've been back they are so Happy!! It is such a Blessing to know you are Loved Unconditionaly, and to be a part of such an Amazing Family!!
We All Thank you so much for your continued Support!!
You have made such a Positive impact on these Mens Lives, who just 1 year ago were malnurished, sick, and sitting in chairs waiting to die!! Now when they get up each day they have Hope!!
From the bottom of Our Hearts, We are Forever Grateful, Love, Penny, Juan, and the Grandpas
