The first Nandandos Por Ellos
Isn’t it great?
We finished the first NADANDOS POR ELLOS!
We can’t tell you how happy and grateful we are to all of you who participated. There were so many people to thank for helping make this swim such an amazing success.
First and foremost we want to thank all the swimmers and walkers and all the other wonderful friends in town who raised money and donated it to help our 5 recipients.
In our wildest dreams we never thought we would raise such a large amount of money. Our success is due to all of you .
Doesn’t this show what a wonderful town we live in? It is great the way our entire population came together for this wonderful cause.
Through your generosity we are proud to announce that we succeeded in collecting $107,030.00 pesos.
WE are working with the families and caretakers of our 5 recipients. As of this writing here is how the money is being used.
Catalina Figueroa Cuevas: - Hemodialysis
José Ruvalcaba Guzman: - Bathroom installation
Everardo Barbosa Silva: - Stove - Mattress - Fan - Medicine - Cleaning and feeding assistance
It is good to see that the money raised is already being used to help these people to make their lives more comfortable and healthier. Lety and Conrado are still on the job fulfilling their needs. Gracias!
