Fundraising by Angelica Comarin

We have got our tickets and are getting ready to leave to reach Puerto Madryn,in Argentina's Patagonia: here the Pope John XXIII Community organizes an after-school program for children from very poor backgrounds, often victims of violence, and assists families from nearby towns to give them food and support.

Maurizio, who is in charge of the project, has done his best to prepare for our arrival and the house where all 4 of us are going to live is almost ready to welcome us and those who will knock on our door seeking shelter.

Now, however, we need your help to find the right resources to purchase a safe vehicle for our babies, Ester and Elijah, and all the children we will meet who live too far from the shelter. The roads are often difficult and unpaved, so an adequate car is needed. We do not want to leave anyone behind!!!

You can support us in two ways:

• Donate to our fundraiser: any contribution, even the smallest, will make a difference.
• If , on the other hand , you want to do something even bigger, activate a personal fundraiser as well and help us engage many new people we otherwise could not reach by asking your friends, family and colleagues to support you with a donation.

Your contribution is so important to reach the goal together and to accompany us on this new adventure. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
