To help with the dire aftermath of hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico we are taking part in the United for Puerto Rico donation/collection effort to sent relief help to the territory expeditiously. 
                                                                    
Puerto Rico needs our help now with basic supply (see list below) and/or with monetary donation (United for Puerto Rico is a trusted organization led by PR’a First Lady and donations can be made in their website. http://unidosporpuertorico.com/en/

In coordination with PRFAA (http://prfaa.pr.gov) we are collecting emergency supply at our house in Bloomingdale, DC (44 Rhode Island Ave NW). We’ll send a shipment to the main collection center in Arlington by Friday September 29th. 

Please do email us at Sabrg91@yahoo.com prior to stopping by to arrange delivery time or reach us at (202) 441-8341

Additionally, we will also hold a collection event on Sunday October 1st at the Bloomingdale Farmers Market located at Florida NW and 1st street NW.  

Thank you so much for your support. 
Marta and Jean-Christophe.
