Nov 8, 2016

Thank you Sue Fiallo for bringing Friends of Matènwa a donation of soccer uniforms and socks and goalie uniforms from Tasis School in Puerto Rico all the way to Boston. We also appreciate the mosquito nets, which are especially needed after Hurricane Matthew. I will get them to Matènwa on my next trip down there in a few weeks.
