Your Solidarity Directly Supports the Community of Nuevo Amanecer |
In response to the COVID-19 Pandemic, the community recently asked us to provide assistance for the bulk purchase of basic food stuffs: corn, beans, rice, and sugar.
We provided the $975 in requested funds, and the food was distributed throughout the community. While we were very happy to provide the support--and will continue to support requests during this emergency—our expenditures in this area will reduce our ability to fund our future commitments to essential scholarships and the community’s clean water project.
- Your $100 donation buys beans, rice, corn meal for tortillas and atol (a corn and milk drink), sugar, and oil to feed 10 families of five for a week.
- Your $50 donation buys all the foods above for 5 families of five for a week.
- Your $20 donation provides all the foods above, plus noodles, oatmeal, onions, and tomatoes for 1 family of five for two weeks.
