Time to give back to the community…

Por Mary Ann Gabino Martínez, VP Senior FCPR

We have reached that moment in which we review the year that has passed.

We celebrate the good occasions and reflect on the lessons that a well-lived year has brought us. Many of us reflect on the abundance that we have and on the needs that other people have.

A way to express gratitude during this period is by giving back and sharing a little of what we have to with those who have needs and dreams yet to be achieved.

We often choose to make a modest donation to an organization. We overlook that if many people came together to make an equally modest contribution, it would no longer be such a modest donation to the community. You can do this directly with the organization of your choice or you can strengthen the?Puerto Rico Community Foundation?to continue collaborating with the communities in Puerto Rico.

The Puerto Rico Community Foundation makes it easy for you to make your contribution and that of many other people to support community development, which ranges from stimulating economic development, access to water and energy, to being able to support community organizations in their immediate response in the wake of impactful events.

Encourage friends and family to join in this effort to give back to the community!
