The Angels are in Trouble

And, They need your help

Below, is a note from Tina at Atenas Cultura - it appears that they need your help in working to make this a nice Christmas for some kids. Please read it

The Angels for Christmas project was started up 6 years ago by Su Espacio, the local community center, to ensure that the poor children in Atenas would receive a gift for Christmas.  The information is gathered from these neighborhoods and then put on "angels" on the tree for the town to Atenas to select and bring in gifts.  It is done anonymously.  This year, there are 320 children in the program, but 120 are still hanging on the tree.  This is the first time in 6 years that we have still had angels hanging on the tree at the deadline.  We don't want any of the children to go without gifts and so we are asking for your help.  You can either come by Su Espacio or make a donation to the project.  Thank you for your help.

Our New Blog

AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

We are in the process of re-doing the website for Costa Concierge Services. While doing this, Pete decided that it would be a good idea to add a link to this blog from that website with the purpose of providing important community information to the current and future residents of Atenas, Costa Rica.

Although the blog is also still under construction - We feel that it is important that you are made aware of a couple of very important events and projects that the community is currently working on - Please click the tabs above to view information regarding:

The Annual Atenas Charity Chili Cook-Off
and
The Enhancements that are being done to make Atenas the Safest City in Costa Rica
