During the period of July-October 2026 our elderly participants received their meals during the weekends from Proyecto La Nueva Esperanza. Right now we serve 55 older participants, who are very low-income. A total of 2,461 meals were prepared in our location and were distributed by our driver at these 55 participant homes. This meal distribution takes about 2 hours because even though the participants are from our community they don’t live near each other.
This summer has been a very hot one, even for Puerto Rico standards. Temperatures have increased with some days with heat records in the hundreds. Water makes up about 60% of our bodies, it helps to regulated our temperature, transport nutrients, waste removal and energy production. The participants received bottled water packs so they can be hydrated and healthy.
Our organization distributed 116 grocery packs to 40 families and 113 elderly from the program and the community.
Our donors are part of our team as they make these achievements possible.
