Recovery from Hurricane Maria has been a slow process. Our beloved west-end of the island took a hard hit from Maria on September 21, 2017. Electricity was lost, and thus, our perishable food supplies. The building sustained some damage. Travel has been restricted. Communications are limited. But we are happy to report that our cooks, Board members and volunteers have (finally) been able to get back in and begin the process of restoration. We were able to get a generator donated so that we could store food again. So much left to do and so many people in need of food!
You can help by making a donation now via our “networkforgood” donation button.
Our finances were already stretched by the untimely passing of our chief fundraiser, Rev Rod Koopmans. The hurricane damage and needs of the people have made your help all the more urgently needed.
