This is so beautiful! Every morning now, I get up and start phoning family and friends in Chile to know how things are going, and check the news hoping to find things are a little bit better... Well, they are. Help is slowly getting to the areas that most need it. Roads are in better shape, and food and water are being delivered...But also, people from the north of Chile are getting organized, and helping in any way they can. How? With a soccer match! La Serena and Coquimbo teams made 8 million pesos yesterday!!! And all that money is going to the Teleton "Chile ayuda a Chile". This is so beautiful!
So, what is the idea? They are playing soccer, matches which they call "amistosos" (friendly), and then asking people for donations, either money or food, and all that goes to the people from the south... Vamos Chile! Vamos Vancouver! You can also help... If you don't know how... Call the Chilean consulate in Vancouver...
