Hello, friends!
We have a lot to celebrate! Taller Salud is turning 40 this year, and we're committed to our goal of helping our women rise from the challenges imposed by poverty and racism in Loiza.
With your generous help, we've put 18 women on the path of recovery after hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico in 2017. Yes, it's been almost two years, but there's still so much to be done and we're working every day to empower our communities, and even though our original goal has to help 10 women, the need was greater than that and, thanks to your donations, we've even able to expand our efforts! For that, we're more than grateful.
Women like Jomaris, Idalis, Efrany, María, Miliam, Rosa, Anabella, María Virginia y María Irene received aid to do home restorations. In some cases -if the houses were beyond repair- we helped them in buying property, and each case has been handled in such a way that all of them have seen positive changes in their lifestyles and can see to the future with hope.
Without you, all these efforts would be impossible. With you, there's no limit to what we can achieve, because when people get organized, they are strengthened. And we'll be there every step of the way.
