Let's give 500 families in Puerto Rico a safe home

Mar 23, 2021

Let's keep going!

By Sara Lopez - Foundress & President CEO

The past year was filled with individual, community, and/or business challenges for everyone globally.

Puerto Rico Rises was not exempt from facing them, but thanks to the unconditional support of our allies, volunteers, and followers, we managed our actions and were able to complete the impact detailed here.

At this time we are preparing the seventh phase of what we have called a mega distribution of articles in which we hope to reach one million people impacted.

Our programs* A tu Salud, De Mano a Mano, Con Tus Manos, and Alacena joined forces to carry out a mega distribution of articles around the entire Island. During the past year, we have impacted more than 575,000 people and we are now ready for the seventh round.

Thanks to our continuous, dedicated, and transparent work, we have been approved to distribute the following items during the next 3 months with the support of the 122 affiliated organizations that joined PRROA**.
12 per week-40' container filled with food boxes approximate 200,000 boxes during the length of this project. Each food box provides food for 3 days for a family of 4.
10,000 medical / surgery gowns
8,000 facial masks
10,000 hand sanitizers
100,000 gallons of milk
Wheelchairs and medical equipment
Building material to 100 families

Thank you for your continuous support and help us to reach the 1Million impact goal.
