Thanks to your help and donations, we are able to support many communities locally and globally.
As an example of our international contributions here is an update from one of the many projects our club supports in the Dominican Republic and a message from John M. Wright Charitable Foundation:
Week 6 update
‘This is our 6th week of Distribution, this week being larger than normal, 458 families plus 100 additional received a bag o bread. We hope to sustain at least 2 more weeks. Had donation from cement Co. so we added 250 families. last week was a double for Nuevos Horizontes will repeat them again next week.
Basic basket is 20 lb rice, 5 lb beans 1 qt oil.
We received for the past few weeks 100 - 150 bags of bread that we have given in other communities and families in need.
Thanks for thinking of us and those in need.
Blessings,
Bob’
And another great update for week 7 from our partners in the Dominican Republic :
‘ the Dominican Republic has begun a multi phase economic reopening as of Wed. 20 May. Basically curfew relaxed, now 7pm to 5am. Many businesses other than restaurants, bars may open now. Mandatory masks and procedures for dealing with customers and distancing. The news promoted a huge increase of folks walking on the Malecon (ocean drive) and the traffic is back to normal, we might miss some of the peace and quiet! Signs people really want to get back to their lives, as they do everywhere. We will be making our final and 8th week of distributions next week. ‘
