What is a Buenos Vecinos de Boquete Food Drive and how can I help?
BVB conducts a Food Drive at Romero's three times a year with Romero's full cooperation. We staff an outside table and display the foods that we provide our clients, and we greet the public with ready smiles and bi-lingual fliers. Our presence at Romero's is important in reminding the entire community of the very real needs of our clients.
Panamanians respond differently to this outreach than the expat community and visitors. The Panamanians understand what we are doing. They shop in the store and return with the same basic food items they buy for their own families to give as a donation. The Expats and visitors generally give us cash; they understand that financial assistance goes a long way, because BVB purchases food wholesale.
How can you help? Come by Romero's on Friday, August 15 from 10 to 2, and make a contribution. If that's not convenient visit our web site at our new website address www.buenosvecinosdeboquete.com or contact one of our volunteer members to contribute to the BVB Food Drive.
