Friends will be staying

Some exciting news but we will need the help of everyone.
After Samy the cook saw a post about young families living in the streets of Toulouse in cold weather... in tents. She contacted me to see how we could help. We offered our gite which has 8 beds to anyone with children who would come. 
It has now been arranged that coming this next week will be two couples and two young teenagers, from Albania we think. I am going next door to start making up beds and getting out towels etc. 
We were given a load of logs from someone who was leaving to use by the boys when they stay but the heating will need to be supplemented by using the electric radiators. Also they will need feeding.
Samy who buys halal meat for the boys will be able to help me with this and both Samy and Anais Rondeau say they will work on their papers keeping them legally in the asylum system.
Once into the system they will have some money. 
My pot is pretty empty having just given our lads money and  promised 100 euros to Et Puis d'ailleurs.
From what I know the boys eat beans, rice, fresh fruit and vegetables, if they make chapattis loads of flour and salt. 
Then donations towards heating costs 
We can do this, we will really try our best.
