How has the paro affected us?

Hogar de Esperanza provides accommodation, food and medical assistance to hundreds of vulnerable people each week. Currently, our facility is at capacity due to patients from the hospitals unable to return home. We provide over 100 meals per day to those in need. To serve this number of people, the law requires we have certain staff in order to provide these services and maintain food quality and cleanliness of our facilities. Food costs have nearly doubled and we have not received our normal level of donations of cash and food due to transportation restrictions. All this has put enormous pressure on our resources. Should this paro continue longer, we are expecting even more demand on our services. We are also faced with not being able to pay our staff this week.
Your support would be greatly appreciated to help us get through this difficult time that is affecting everyone.
