TODOS SOMOS BORICUAS

Donation protected
September 29, 2017

Our Community of Dover, NJ. with the help of Casa Puerto Rico Inc. has organized a family event “TODOS SOMOS BORICUAS” (ALL FOR PUERTO RICO), on November 18, 2017 at Casa Puerto Rico in Dover, NJ to help raise funds to the devastated families in Puerto Rico, affected by hurricane Maria. In addition we're creating this go fund me page for anyone that wants to donate any monetary amount.

As you all know Puerto Rico is facing one of the biggest natural disasters caused by Hurricane Maria which
caused massive destruction throughout the entire island. 100% of the island had lost power and it will take several months before electricity gets restored. No electricity means no power to pump water into people's homes and almost half of the population have no potable water. Thousands of families were left with no roof over their homes and many homes were ripped apart leaving these families on the streets with no shelter. The island is running short on food, people are getting desperate looking for food and water to survive. The situation is catastrophic. So far the death toll is at 19 but the number of dead people keeps rising every day. The elderly, the young, and the sick are in desperate need!
So what can you do? You can help this noble cause by donating any monetary amount through this go fund me page. 100 % of all proceeds will go directly to help as many needy families in Puerto Rico. Our goal is to raise over $20,000.00 by the end of November 2017. But we can't do it alone. We need to come together as a community and show our support for our brothers and sisters in Puerto Rico. Our team "Todos Somos Boricuas" will send 5 members of our team to the island to distribute all donations throughout the entire Island. Our help will be directly to these families with no institution or other entity in between. This way you can be sure that your donation will reach these families in desperate need.
This event and go fund me page hosted by Casa Puerto Rico is intended to raise funds to provide these families with urgent basic needs such as water, food items, clothing, mattresses, generators, hygiene products, etc.. 100% of all proceeds will go towards these efforts. Puerto Rico needs our help! We know the funds we raise will limit us to help every family on the island. We as a community will come together to do the best we can to provide the most families in need in the 78 towns in Puerto Rico. We are moved that our community has united together to support this noble cause, but again we cannot reach our goal on our own. We are asking for your generous donation of any monetary amount, Your donation will be a great contribution to this noble cause .....Can we count on you to donate?
We thank you in advance for your contribution and also hope to see you at Casa Puerto Rico on November 18th, at 12:00 pm for our family event. We'll have a variety of Latin foods, desserts, 50/50, Tricky trays, face painting, salsa performances, salsa bands, singers, karaoke, and much more....

Sincerely,

Osvaldo Orama
President of Casa Puerto Rico
