Best mometn Sunday 170423

Sunday morning I was honored to help clean up after the Calorcito pa'l Corazon fundraiser. So many people helped make the party both a party and a huge fundraising success. They met the fundraising goal and now can buy blankets and warm socks to give out in hospital emergency rooms for the rest of the year.

I want to share something from one of the Calorcito volunteers:

"While working the door, two different couples attended our fundraiser that let me know they were also recipients of CPC blankets in the ER.

The first couple said the wife was in the Aguadilla ER freezing and in came "The angels with blankets and socks. We still can't believe it was free. No one asked us for money. We appreciate the work that Calorcito Pa'l Corazon. We HAD to support this fundraiser!"

The second couple said the husband was in the Moca ER by himself. The wife was in the States at the time. "I can't thank you people enough for giving my husband a blanket. He was with pneumonia and in and out of sleep but woke covered in a blanket with a little red heart. He later asked the nurse about the blanket and she explained about your wonderful group. We jumped at the chance to give back and support you people. Gracias y Dios te Bendiga!"

Our dear friend Carole volunteered her beautiful home as a site for the fundraiser. By the time we got there Sunday morning to clean up, other volunteers had done pretty much all the work; there was very little for us to do. Is it any wonder that I am honored to be even a small part of this amazing group? 

That's why even helping to clean up was a best moment.
