 c.  Here’s another reminder from “Feeding the Hungry”.  If you are able, please help supply grocery funds for the people in our community who are, or shortly will be, going hungry.  100% of your donation goes to buy food vouchers at our local grocery, Chapitos.
This voucher program has been in existence for 4 years, and the vouchers are being distributed by a trustworthy local Mexican who intimately knows the people in need in our community. He has been distributing basic food supplies to them for over 10 years.  The vouchers are used by the participants to purchase much needed food items or prescriptions or diapers; whatever the family needs the most.
We will accept pesos, dollars, US checks or Mexican checks.  Please contact us at purkeybh@gmail.com, or call Ben and Harriet at 624-141-0339 (land line) or 624-177-9881 (Ben’s cell) or Harriet’s US cell, 541-854-5303.
If you are currently in the US, no problem.  If you’re still here in the Los Barriles area, no problem!  Just call or email us to let us explain how to get your donations into the “Feeding the Hungry” program. It could be the best thing you do in these challenging times.
The cancellation of our March Feeding the Hungry Fashion Show Fundraiser was a real disappointment to us, but it is the Mexicans, the poorest of the poor that our program helps. They are being hurt the most.  Any financial help will be greatly appreciated. – purkeybh@gmail.com

g.  ** Los Barriles Food Bank Update (March 28 2020) **Thank you everyone from the Mayor, community and business leaders for the food and monetary donations so far. This is a true community effort and we have been so touched by the response to date. While the stocks are building steadily, we still need money and food donations. PLEASE NOTE THAT MONEY TRANSFER DETAILS HAVE CHANGED BELOW. Here’s an update of where we are:

Eligibility/Needs Analysis – the Delegacion has already started on an assessment of households. It is right that the authorities are leading on a fair and appropriate assessment as they know the local population, the households etc. We will cross reference with existing systems in town to make sure there is no doubling up.

Food Stocks – the team from Joe’s Deli worked late into the night to do an audit of what we have already including 79 bags of rice, 105 bags/cans of beans, 164 cartons of milk – see photo which doesn’t really do it justice. When the Delegacion has completed the needs analysis, then we can look at how much we are missing and where we need to build stocks. We will then be able to announce a start date.

Staple Items – we are working towards a bank of staples including: beans, rice long-life milk, flour, sugar, cooking oil. When the Los Barriles Food Bank opens, we will add eggs to that list and also the additional foodstuffs that people have been donating.

Distribution – we are finalizing a system to distribute the food which we can share with you in a few days. Some have asked about the government’s responsibility. They are not making any assessment for at least another two weeks. Then we have no idea when they will start to distribute foods – if at all. So the burden lies on us to at least fill any gaps by taking action now.

Good News! – we have just secured a ton (literally a ton!) of beans from a local area supplier at an unbelievably low price thanks to our Mayor’s efforts. This is great news. The team continues to liaise with local suppliers and wholesalers to get the best prices possible in order to make the money work harder.

**IMPORTANT** If you have people asking you about whether they can get food from Los Barriles Food Bank, please refer them to the Delegacion to register – online during out of office hours. Do not send them to any of the collection points around town.

Donating Money
Send Venmo and Paypal to Jeane Harkleroad (who was previous Rotary President in case you don’t recognise her name!) at jhark29@gmail.com· Transferwise – https://transferwise.com/ Please email gibson.ian@outlook.com for an account number, email and name.

· Cash – cash is also be accepted. Please make your donation at Joe’s Deli.
· Wire Transfer – Please email gibson.ian@outlook.com to get the wiring instructions.

Donating Food – Please donate dried and canned foods: beans, rice long-life milk, canned veg/fruit, flour, sugar, cooking oil, cans of tomatoes, tuna etc. and leave them at the drop-off points – La Playa Restaurant, Bahia Real Estate or Café Encinalito (Sasha’s Café).
“Buy & Donate” – at Joe’s Deli and La Pitahaya (Veggie Ladies), when you buy a can or dried food, buy an additional one and then after paying for it, donate it by placing it into the Los Barriles Food Bank bin.

QUESTIONS
Any questions regarding eligibility/food distribution/households = Luis our Mayor.

b.  During any time of National Emergency, there will always be scammers who
will try to take advantage.  Beware of links that profess to give you
valuable information or who are raising money for people in need.  Those
links may not be to the organizations that you intend.  There are always
constant threats.  Just last week, I got an official looking email from
my bank advising me of a charge from LL Bean.  The first thing I did was
go directly to my bank web site.  Sure enough, no charges.  The real tip
off was LL Bean; geeks wear old t shirts and thick glasses held together
with paper clips and tape and mismatched flip flops!    thecomputerguy@usa.com

c.  We need volunteers to help construct many more emergency face shields for our local healthcare workers (Civil Protection & The Centro De Salud)  Do you have these materials in your house, or can you safely get them (like from your next door neighbors or using a shopping service?):

1.5 liter clear empty plastic bottles (like Topo Chico bottles)
Foam padding: we’ve been using pipe insulation, any foam at least 3/4 inches thick works

Duct tape to attach the foam padding and wire
Paracord rope
