Little warning: long message ahead, but an important one! Please take a moment

Salvavidas is a rescue shelter caring for many dogs and cats who depend on us. Recently, we faced high veterinary expenses of approximately $5,000 due to a gastrointestinal bacterial outbreak and kennel cough among our animals.

To help cover these costs and continue caring for our furry friends, we are organizing a special food fundraiser on October 18, preparing 200 pulled pork sandwiches served with coconut juice and ají (spicy sauce).

We kindly ask for donations of any of the following ingredients to prepare the fundraiser. Even one item would be a wonderful contribution:

For the coconut juice:

• 2 cases of milk (24 units total)

• 8 brown coconuts

• 1 bottle of coconut essence

• ½ arroba of sugar (about 12.5 pounds)

For the ají and ranch sauces:

• Ají (spicy peppers or sauce ingredients, approx. $4 worth)

• Tree tomatoes (approx. $5 worth)

• 1 red bell pepper

• 3 bags of cooking oil

• Achiote

• Guajillo chiles

• 1 small bag of salt

For the BBQ sauce:

• 1 large bottle of tomato sauce

• 1 large bottle of mustard

• 1 large bottle of soy sauce

• 2 kg of brown sugar

• 10 oz of paprika

If you can donate any ingredients or know someone who can, please contact me. I am the English-speaking volunteer at Salvavidas and can pick up donations.

If you cannot donate ingredients, please consider attending the fundraiser on October 18 and buying a sandwich to support our cause.

Thank you for your kindness and support in helping us save lives.
