Need is obvious when you see it. A great many of the people you'll see in Kiva are I would classify as people in need. I don't know enough about this ladies circumstances, but I'd feel responsible if my mother killed herself and sent me a note blaming a new tax.
I can't imagine you helping anyone. No evidence of any form of assistance coming from you in this forum (although in fairness to you I can't say I've delved into years worth of archives looking for something positive or encouraging that you may have ever said).

You remind me of one those magnanimous victorian benefactors who built and financed workhouses.
They were the wealthy industrialists in their day who caused the misery which they felt so self righteous about 'relieving', by paying low wages and charging high rents.
I think that I would have to be devoid of all pride and self respect to accept your 'benevolence'.
