NEWS FLASH<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Puerto Rico has been hit by yet another devasting hurricane!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Hurricane Fiona was a category 1 storm with 85 mph winds that hit the southwestern corner of Puerto Rico.<\/p>\n

Rain and high winds have been the main source of devastation, causing significant tree and power outages.<\/p>\n

Currently, 90% of the island is without power and 25% of the island\u2019s population is without water.<\/p>\n

This happened 5 years after the passing of Hurricane Maria in September 2014.<\/p>\n

  5. Toothbrushes<\/li>\n
  6. Water purification tablets<\/li>\n
  7. Hygiene products<\/li>\n
  8. Toiletries<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    We will have donation boxes at our front entrance beginning Thursday, September 22 until Friday, October 7<\/strong>. The organization we will be sending items to is called \u201cTaller Salud,\u201d\u00a0a community-based organization working directly on the grounds in Puerto Rico.
