LOOK AT WHAT YOU HAVE ACCOMPLISHED!
We should all be very pleased with the support we have shown for this very important initiative. The photo shows the weekly delivery of food and supplies that will be going out to the 250 families that need help in our area. Its a wonderful thing to see. We continue to receive generous donations from you. Local farmers are bring in their products to help fill the boxes with fresh food. This week we will buy 1.5 tons of fresh produce. People are supplying masks. One kind soul is bringing down from the USA hundreds of N95 masks. The Los Barriles Rotary Club is networking with other Rotary Clubs to bring in gifts from the north. All this keeps our community safe and healthy.
But we haven't crossed the finish line yet. The missing piece to the puzzle is the duration of our closed economy. No one seems certain about the timing of when people will be able to return to work. Your continued help is greatly needed. To that end, here are the links to let you do that:

A very special thank you to all the dedicated people on the front line who travel the distance to get food to all the neighborhoods we support and to La Providencia for allowing their lovely restaurant to warehouse our supplies while we ready them for delivery. This photo shows some delivery team members getting bio safety training.
