PLEASE SPONSOR A FAMILY IN MEMORY OF IRENE HAINES
Mariano and Christian are best buddies at Fundacion Pro Integration's Saturday get togethers. Both boys are deaf. Mariano is 11, and lives in a one room bamboo structure with his parents and four siblings. His father does manual labor when he can find work. Christian is also 11, and lives with his family in farm quarters, where his father works the fields and sells vegetables. Both families are assisted by Buenos Vecinos de Boquete with monthly food supplies.
The boys are pictured here with Irene Haines at last year's Christmas party at FPI. Dressed in their best, they were so excited to go into the festivities with Irene and perform a rock and roll number. They may not have heard the applause, but they got a standing ovation led by Irene! Boys like Mariano and Christian, and their families, are in need of Sponsors to continue the work of BVB.
Irene was one of the founders of Buenos Vecinos de Boquete. She was also an passionate advocate member of Fundacion Pro Integracion, and enjoyed relaxing with her friends at Boquete Knitters. Irene would be pleased and grateful to know that the Boquete community is still supporting the causes she worked so hard for.
If you would like to sponsor this family, and the efforts of Buenos Vecinos de Boquete, your financial support would be most appreciated.
