Hurricane Maria Relief
Donation protected
Dear Friends and Family,
I didn't think I'd ever find myself in a position to utilize GoFundMe, but I find myself and my son in unfamiliar life circumstances. Those of you who know my son Josh know that they just went through Hurricane Maria which hit them dead on in San Juan, Puerto Rico. They rode it out in the building where their business (La Roneria Clandestino) is located and are safe which is a huge blessing! It's so hard being so far away here in California, I'm praying I can help them this way.
Unfortunately, the 14th floor condo they were renting had all the windows blown out and is flooded and unlivable. They will be without power for 3 to 6 months, meaning their business can not open, which is their livlihood to survive there.
If Josh can get a generator he can open his doors to the neighbors and friends in San Juan who need a place to charge their phones, tell their stories and get food and drink - just like he did after Irma. This money collected will go to that generator so that he can reopen his business and, if enough is collected, also assist them in finding a new place to live. For now they're living in La Roneria.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, and the sooner the better! Thank you and God Bless you and everyone who has been affected by all of these natural disasters world wide!
