By Clai Fields | Project Volunteer / Casita Linda Ambassador
Casita Linda is proud to announce that we have just completed Casita #78 for the Cazares family. Casita Linda would like to thank you for your continued support and generosity. None of this would be possible without your financial aid, volunteer work, and moral support.
This year we have had a busy and productive summer. We began buiding in a very rural neighborhood of San Miguel, Nueva Pantoja, where we currently have comepleted two houses. Both homes have been selected for very hard-working and well deserving local families; Casita #77 was received by a single mother, Maria, and her two kids; and very recently we completed Casita #78 for a family of 9, the Cazares family. We hope to complete another four Casita's by the end of 2014. In addition, Casita Linda has recently implemented new strategies in both the administrative and social aspects of the Casita Linda mission, that have improved operational efficiency and reduced costs. We have also begun our new Ambassador program, where contributors can volunteer to be a national or international Casita Linda representative.
Our newly appointed Board Members, Lyn Gawron and Joane Howard are hard working and very dedicated to our cause. Our new Executive Director, Amber Nieto, is a San Miguel native who is a great asset to Casita Linda. She has excellent administrative skills and a determination to strive to help current and prospective families.
We would also like to announce that next month, on October 11th at 6:30 pm, we will be hosting our 3rd annual Spirit of Hope Gala (Arabian Nights) at the local equestrian club Otomi. Guests will enjoy a lavish dinner by the restaurant b'ui, a Live Auction, and non-stop dancing to the music of JK O'Donnell and the Zu Zu Men. ALL proceeds will go to contributing to our mission of building safe homes for local families living in extreme poverty. For more information please visit our event page.
Casita Linda would like to take this opportunity to thank the local, national, and international community for their continued support. We appreciate your past and future support, and hope that you and your friends or members of your family will be able to support our goals and ultimately our mission.
Please contact us if you would like more information about organization, our Ambassador program, or how you can become a member of our team, please visit our website.
Sincerely,
