You might check with Russel @ Carboncitos as he is/was a drop-off point for the aspirin donations for Angel Notion.

Here is the link to Angel Notion's website. I do not see an address on there.

Are they still looking for 81mg aspirin? I will grab a few bottles and bring them.

We'll probably drop ours off with Russell since we plan on going to Carboncitos the second day we are there.
But thank you Snappy!!!

Incessant rain? How long has it been raining there. It better clear up for my grand entrance!!!

we need some help!!!

ok, instead of starting a new thread, i thought we could do this here

i have been gone for vacation and upon my return there were projects mounting up
of course, if anyone wanted to help with some labor, that would be great, but we don't even have dinero to pay for materials

we had to replace the tinaco, the water was leaking at an appalling rate
the money for the water tank was borrowed, lalo and i did all the labor at no cost to angel notion

if any of you fabulous people would like to donate to angel notion, the donation is tax free
you can go to angelnotion.org and hit that paypal button
thanks

we will be starting some new programs for people who want to help us out
lavaonna is due back soon, look for some exciting news soon

in the meantime, anyone who can help in any small way, you will be blessed by the angels and by we mere mortals, too
we need various materials to install necessary shelving, cables to run electricity to the new planned storage room addition, and, in fact, building materials that we raised money for and had to spend on more pressing matters, like paying bills!!

so, anyway, i hate to beg, but sometimes i go over there to work and we have no money to buy what we need to complete a project
if you do donate thru paypal, please make a note that it is for maintenance and building projects
if you are in town, you can come to the clinic or drop a few pesos with russell or you can contact me and i will pick it up and deliver your tax exempt receipt

thanks in advance for your kindness

Hey Sammy, there's a big turnaround window for things like this, don't get down. Lots of people reading your post today will visit three or four months from now and make a donation. In addition, I'd say at least 50% of the people who drop things off with us are lurkers so wouldn't comment here anyway.
You're making an impact even if you can't see/feel immediate results. Keep fighting the good fight and maybe your select charity might some day get ahead of the game.

Rob and I are donating a computer but we have already spoken directly to Lavonna about this. I'm sure lots of other people are making contributions that we don't and won't hear about.

Keep up the good fight!

Hey, snappy, just how much does one of those water tanks cost?
