Help the Street Boys at New Life Mexico Pamela Thompson - PVNN
| | If you can help with donations, please contact me as soon as possible at 222-9638 or 044-322-107-7007. - Pamela Thompson | | | For those of us who are here in Puerto Vallarta at this time, we know that in the past 24 hours especially, we have been inundated with heavy rains. Many of us have leaks in our windows, roofs and problems with muddy roads - but we will be fine.
Unfortunately the "Albergue" (Shelter) for the Street Boys at New Life Mexico is designed so that to get from a dormitory to the bathroom, kitchen area or anywhere else, the boys get wet.
At this time, 34 boys have no dry clothes (the old dryer just cannot keep up) not one dry towel, and are soaked to the skin. (There is only one towel per boy.)
At this time, we are in urgent need of:
• Towels (used in good shape are fine!) • T-Shirts (boys 8 to 18 years) • Cough Medicine, both children's and adult (for the over 12 year olds) • Vitamin C chewable tablets • Boxers (men's medium size 32-34 - new only)
If you can donate any of the above, please contact me as soon as possible at 222-9638 or 044-322-107-7007. We will make arrangements for someone to pick up your donations.
As we sit comfortably in our dry homes, please think of these kids and please consider assisting the Street Boys in our urgent plea!
Thank you! |
