Bullet points - hang on - squelch all distractions - pay attention..
Volunteer opportunities continue at the Hope Haven West warehouse - 1628 Nadine Avenue, Modesto - Tuesday and Wednesday mornings 8:00am till Noon. Contact Nick Mascitelli 209-765-3304 or nicamas@yahoo.com - Nick is “The Man” - he will set you straight on volunteer opportunity.
Distributions - Breaking News…
Wheelchairs are in motion - tickets have been purchased! We are awaiting delivery in Ulaanbaatar before releasing our itinerary and assembling this team. Many volunteers are in the queue for this travel/service opportunity. So many side trip opportunities (you are in Asia, ya know?) - waivers must be signed for this trip (Vodka is toxic). Big News - Dates have been moved up a smidge - trip is now planned for July 29th through August 8th (again, consider extensions - Lisa and I are planning two days of tourism in Seoul on the return flight).
September-
Volunteers at the Hope Haven West warehouse are putting the final touches on the Hope Haven Kids chairs that are slated for this project. We are planning to ship in containers in June - tickets will be secured the first of July for this adventure. Remember, this is a two container project - volunteers may choose to participate in one or the other (or both) of these projects. We anticipate September 10th through 15th in Lima - short flight to Arequipa on the 15th - distribution and shenanigans in Arequipa until the 22nd. Lots to see, lots to do (I want to see those Nazca lines - I mean like, we are right there)!
November-
Last scheduled trip this year. Our own Julio Hallack (Oakdale, Rotary) is orchestrating this one (these are his people). This may well be the most outlandish cultural immersion Hope Haven West has ever sponsored. Julio and his Rotary team in Hermosillo, Sonora are pulling out all the stops. Administrative team is already engaged in structuring curfews and drinking limits for this project (after we get all the kids seated - we don’t care what you do - let your conscious be your guide). Guaranteed a good time (Once again - waivers required)! Presently scheduled for November 12th through the 18th.
Homegrown Concert - State Theater, April 8th - If you have not yet purchased your ticket - quit messing around and contact thestate.org today (less than 100 seats remain). The cultural event of the month (well, Easter - there is that) - but really good, not to be missed! Once again, many thanks to all our business associates and friends who have ponied up to support Hope Haven West and assist in bringing great live music events to Modesto.
We remind you that Hope Haven West is a 100% charity (no salaries, administrative or fund raising expense) all donations to Hope Haven West go directly (and exclusively) to providing mobility for the disabled poor (mostly kids). Consider a gift today - you could do worse…
Rockin’ the Free World,
