The Pensioners

Story Due to bureaucratic failure, many immigrants from the former Soviet Union are not getting the pension accrued while working in their home countries, and thus are forced to continue working and saving in order to grow old with dignity. A significant percentage of immigrant pensioners are living below the poverty line. When forced to choose between buying food or medicine, life becomes a day-to-day struggle for survival.
