Thanks to all for another successful Food Drive last Friday, April 27 at Romero's. Everyone, both Panamanian locals and expats alike, helped us bank both cash and non-perishable food to assist our clients! LOVE it when the locals "Get It;" understand what we are doing; and reach in their pockets to assist. There seems a particular sense of pride when they do so. Thanks again to all; our team for the long hours, and for the great spirit of generosity in our special town!
