[News Boquete] Buenos Vecinos de Boquete February Newsletter

Support Buenos Vecinos de Boquete in February! Buenos Vecinos continues to need your support. This small volunteer force channels every dollar received to the wholesale purchase of food, and then packs it and distributes it to more than one hundred of the neediest families in the community. Some of the faces of our food recipients are: A young single mom with two toddlers, one with a severe cleft palate and asthma A family of seven living in a bamboo hut with no electricity A grandmother caring for her deceased daughter's children and other family youngsters An older partially-blind man living alone in the woods cooking on an outdoor stove An elderly woman caring for her middle-aged mentally-handicapped daughter Our clients are particularly needy. Please help!   www.buenosvecinosdeboquete.com Family of the Month February Three years ago Albert was paralyzed from the waist down after a crushing fall on a job site.
