> Dear Friend,
>
> Please excuse me for any inconvenience caused by this message.

> My name is Valentin and I live with my mother and brother in the city of Kaluga, Russia. I grew up without a father. He left when I was
two-years-old. My mother took care of me and my brother without the father.
She worked at three places at once in order to earn the necessary money to
feed our family. >
> My mother is an invalid many years already, because she lost her health and sight working at the heavy works. She receives a pension very rare from
the government which is not enough even for supporting our lives. >
> My brother is a heavy invalid too, because of the accident happened 5 years ago. He is a wheel-chair-driver. The corrupt government does not pay
any pension to him and almost all other Russian invalids. >
> We have a little garden where I grow vegetables during the summer. I also go to our local forest every day in order to collect acorns. I cook very
good cakes from them and we eat it every day. >
> I'm very afraid that the cold winter is setting in and acorns will not be available in the forest anymore. I do not know what my family could eat
afterwards and I think that all of us are doomed to starvation and death. >
> The only chance we have to survive is to use public access to the internet at our School to appeal to you directly for help. If you have any old warm
clothes which you are not using anymore, as well as anything that is
possible to eat, I would be more than happy if you could send it to our home
