Hogar del Nino A.C. has been caring for the needs of foster and orphaned children in Todos Santos now for over 5 months. The children come to Hogar del Nino through the government agency DIF and the children are from all over Southern Baja. Currently Hogar del Nino has 22 children in their care, ages 5 to 14. Joel Hernandez is the director along with his wife Alicia. The “Meals on Wheels” drive has been very successful and I want to thank many of you for preparing and bringing food to the children. We currently have volunteers bringing meals 2 times a week and welcome all who want to participate. The meals are greatly appreciated as food is the #1 priority. If you would like to participate please contact Lisa Welsch at LWelsch@CBRiveras.com or call 044-612-140-1414
