Helping Hands Costa Rica recently received a FABULOUS DONATION of 4 big duffle bags FULL of VERY gently used AND NEW shoes (around 80 pairs) from the CORMIER family (Ted, Kristen, Haley, Hanna & Teddy) of Conneticut (first picture) on their visit to Costa Rica!! They gathered donations from friends and classmates!
One bag was FILLED with school and art supplies that were split between Gail Nystrom's CR Humanitarian Foundation & our upcoming benefactors of HH's Burger & Beer Fundraiser (Sun. May 11 from noon-5pm at Rock & Roll Pollo in Santa Ana. Inquire to 8-378-6679 for more details) - Patronato Nacional de Rehabilatcion (National Foundation for Rehabilitation).
Helping Hands "Walk A Mile In Their Shoes" campaign's goal is to collect a miles worth of gently used & new shoes! A mile's worth of shoes is around 5,000!!!
What we're doing in the mean time, when we get NICE donations like what we received from the Cormiers, we first try selling them (at The House Of Self Empowerment - ON Calle Vieja in Escazu) & the money raised goes to Gail's CR Humanitarian Foundation as we can make a lot more money on them ourselves.
Things that aren't sold are donated to Gail & she sells them to her people (many of which live in The Carpio [home to many of the poorest of the poor people]) for 500 or so colones (so it's not a disempowering handout). The money raised goes to help support their medical facilities and other needs!!!
If you're interested in seeing these shoes (there are LOTS of kids shoes - MOST of which are BRAND NEW!!!) contact 8-378-6679.
Tourists & Locals alike, we welcome you to donate your old (or new!!!) shoes, clothes, household items/furniture/appliances, books, school supplies (ESPECIALLY needed!!), medical supplies, vitamins, WHATEVER - to Helping Hands and the people of Costa Rica (isn't it a WONDERFUL FEELING to give back to the people in the country you are visiting/living in?!?!?!)!
