Albergue
Wish List
A group of us from
Rotary were reviewing what we could do for the albergues in La
Ribera and Santiago in reference to repair and restoration
subsequent to Odile. We came across another opportunity to help the
kids housed there, that is really not part of a disaster relief
project.
An albergue for those new to the term are facilities where children
from the very rural areas live from Sunday evening till Friday
afternoon so they can attend school in town. Between the two there
are about 150, primary and secondary school students.
What we would like to do with the community's help is provide the
kids and staff with some items that have just simply worn out. To
that end we have left a list at Homes and Lands of Baja of the items
needed. Please stop by and view the list and if you can, pick up one
of the items on your next shopping
trip. The list includes sporting equipment, school supplies, and
general household items. If you would prefer, we can do the shopping
for you. There is a jar available for donations.
The Rotary thanks you in advance for your support, remember we meet
every Wednesday (except this Wednesday we're busy with Lord of the
Wind) at Lighthouse Pizza, at 8:00am stop by for a cup of coffee we
would appreciate your input.
