A number of people have contacted me wanting to donate help to victims of recent floods. Some of you may already know of Bob Hildreth and Project Las Americas.
Objective
Currently they are buying beds and mosquito netting for those who lost all their bedroom stuff in the floods. US$100 will buy a complete bed set including netting but donations of any size are welcome as are donations of clothing.
This Foundation IS registered in US & anyone making donations can offset such donations against taxes. The Foundation is registered in the US under the 501{3}c - details on website. All external donations go direct to those in need as Foundation directors cover admin costs themselves.
Bob Hildreth can be e-mailed at Agua@volcris.com or PLA@volcris.com
His Tel No. is 1 809 586 6516 (this is his work office - Compra Venta Antonio). He speaks English and Spanish. Donations from outside DR (Cheques, cash or clothing etc) should be sent via Business Mail in Miami:
Project Las Americas (BM 3-00043)
3508 NW 114 Av
Doral, Florida 33178
For those who live here Bob Hildreth is in Puerto Plata & can be located at Compra Venta Antonio.
Please, I don't want this to be seen in any way as detracting from any other charitable donations people are currently making via DR1. DR1'ers have big hearts & can handle more than one issue at a time .
On behalf of the very damp barrio dwellers: a BIG thank you.
