A plea is being made for more to be done to feed and house the needy who are feeling the brunt of the economic recession.
It came yesterday from two minimum wage workers waiting in line for lunch from the Save The Nation Foundation in Queen’s Park.
 David Depeiza, 53, told the DAILY NATION that while he was happy for the meal, he wanted to be able to at least make ends meet.
Depeiza said his pay was simply not enough to get him by every day of the week.  (MM)
