COVID-19 has our world in a tailspin.
On the border, wages are down to $40 per week.
1,000’s have been laid off. Families are going hungry as the misery of extreme poverty sets in.
Crime rates are rising.
Desperate people do desperate things to feed their children.
WE CAN CHANGE THIS.
RANCHO FELIZ is Shape-Shifting
Placing other projects on hold.
Our focus now is base-survival – FOOD.
We have fed tens of thousands of the poor over the last three decades, so this is not new to us. However, operating in a pandemic environment is.
We have asked our Mexican associates to follow the COVID-19 health guidelines in developing protocol for how and where the bulk food should be purchased, delivery taken, divided and individually packaged and redistributed.
To avoid crowds, food bags will be delivered separately to those families determined most in need. Our Vecinos & Scholarship volunteers will be on the front lines in this humanitarian effort and we remain equally committed to their safety.
While food prices are rising, the $US dollar’s purchasing power is stronger than ever. Food bags will contain staple items as well as fresh vegetables and other immune-boosting ingredients.
Help us help our neighbors south of the border who were not born into our same fortunate circumstances. As a lean, volunteer-based organization this is charitable leverage at its best.
1 Food Bag = | $20 |
5 Food Bags = | $100 |
10 Food Bags = | $200 |
20 Food Bags = | $400 |
40 Food Bags = | $800 |
100 Food Bags = | $2,000 |
500 Food Bags = | $10,000 |
1,000 Food Bags = | $20,000 |
5,000 Food Bags = | $100,000 |
Thank you for your support and we will keep you posted on our progress in the telling weeks to come.
Sincerely, Jim & Gil
