I visited the building on June 14 and all is moving forward…
The section for the kitchen is being enclosed and the concrete second floor will be a small office and an area for children.
Funds have been raised to open the soup kitchen within the next two weeks.
A bingo night was sponsored by the Monkey Bar in Cotacachi and approximately $275 was raised.
We also had a photo gallery showing unusual photos from South Africa, Korea and our local areas of interest. Local photographers Johan and Marina Prozesky will make a donation from their sales.
People will be fed within the building on picnic style tables. Breakfast will be served at 6 am and 8 am. We hope to offer a second meal during the day once we are organized with food donations and a schedule.
WE WILL NEED VOLUNTEERS…
Please contact me for further information.
