KUCHING: Non-governmental organisation (NGO), Hope Place has responded to a plea for assistance from a family in need after the sole provider suffered a stroke in Nov last year.
Enggu Sampar, 65, who is bedridden after he suffered a stroke, used to work at a factory. He was admitted to the hospital.
His spouse has been taking care of him ever since he was bedridden at home.
“With his youngest still in school, added medical expenses and rent, the family is currently in need of desperate assistance,” Hope Place said in a statement here yesterday.
