The folk song of the same name indicates in poetic form that we need to nurture not only the basics of life, but the art of living. Adopt a Grandparent (Adopta un Abuelito), Inc. donates money to the acquiring of food for the "Grandparents", and it is dedicated to increasing the quality of life for Los Martincito. Money is needed to buy new games and puzzles, to encourage creativity, to enhance the environment. Yes, feeding these desperately poor seniors is of a high priority, but all the other areas of life need to be considered as well.
This is the beginning of a very wonderful mural, being created by Neil and Lydia, two CCS volunteers. The cost of the mural, not counting the time and effort and creativity, was $100 for supplies. There are 5 other walls to be painted, all donations toward this project gratefully accepted.
In order to live in dignity and harmony, the Abuelitos need bread AND roses. Please help!
