On September 20, 2017, Puerto Rico was hit by a category 4 hurricane that devastated the island. Eleven months have passed and still the devastation is present, especially in the remote parts of the island. There are still many houses without roofs and many families without a place to call home.

 width=The Giselle Marie Foundation is helping Puerto Rico in the recovery process by providing equipment, tools and roofing materials to the families that are still suffering because of the devastation left by hurricane Maria.

As of today, the foundation, in partnership with the municipality of Jayuya, a town located in the center of the island, has rebuilt more than 7 houses and with your financial support, it will continue to provide help until every family affected by the storm has a decent roof over their heads.

 width=Led by its founders, David Medina and Gisela Rodriguez, the foundation has secured three more large containers full of materials that need to be sent to Puerto Rico.  To make that happen, more money will need to be raised.

If you are interested in helping with this worthy cause, go to the foundation’s website at www.GiselleMarieFoundation.com or to there Facebook page:  https://www.facebook.com/GiselleMarieFoundation/

NOTE FROM THE EDITOR:  To do our part on behalf of this wonderful cause, Conexión Media Group is organizing and will host the UNITY Gala “A Night of Charity con Sabor Latino!” The Gala will be October 13, 2018 in Fort Walton Beach.  This dinner/dance event will include a Fashion Show, Silent Auction and a presentation by David Medina and Gisela Rodriguez on the project.  Proceeds from the UNITY Gala will benefit their project in Puerto Rico.  For more information on this Gala, contact us at:  [email protected]
