Our Boxing Day ¨Food Bank Box¨ Tradition begins 2010

In addition to the our Boxing Day luncheon party honoring our visitors Ricardo and Steven--Elizabeth and Tom McCullough, Juan Carlos and I will be encouraging/accepting food donations (packages of dry basic foodstuffs of rice, beans, sugar and/or canned goods) for the NEW San Miguel Food Bank we´re planning.

Our hope is that we´ll receive many contributions of food donations and that we will then be able to safely ¨stock¨ and later distribute (with the help of local trusted priest) much needed emergency food to families and ¨elders¨ who will be in extra need of food help through 2011.

Friends anonymously helping friends is our plan and when our San Miguel Food Bank needs restocking, well, we´ll just have another party and invite you!

Looking forward to greeting you in San Miguel on Boxing Day!

Best to you and your loved ones during the Christmas Season and siempre,

Elizabeth, Tom, Juan Carlos and Leonardo
