There are various ways to support Puentes. We always welcom individual donations. Intterested parties sohuld contact Puentes at the information provided on this website. In addition we often have artisan products available for sale in Wisconsin and Minnesota. The proceeds from these sales benefit our programs. Check the site for updates on what is available or contact Ann Drazkowski at adrazkowski@puentesngo.org.

There are always specific needs to be filled by durable goods donations: used clothes, particularly winter clothes, are necessary. Respiratory infections and other illnesses often reach high levels during cold months. These infections are highly damaging to the youngest and oldest of La Libertad. Technology donations are always welcome. Much of rural La Libertad has the capacity to connect to Internet however the computer infrastructure is lacking. In addition computer skills are a necessary component in isolated communities. They provide an immediate link to the outside world. Finally medical equipment for the regional hospitals and medical posts is necessary. As some of these donations require a more detailed examination of needs interest parties should contact Puentes.

Volunteer services, depending on their nature, are also welcome. Even if a volunteer does not end up in one of our programs we have contacts throughout the region with volunteer placement agencies and other non-profits. We require that these contacts maintain a level service appropriate to guarantee the security of volunteers. Interested parties can also contact Drazkowski at the address above.

If none of these options sound interesting to you but you feel that you can support in another way please, again, feel free to contact us.
