Check Discover Baja
If you are in the San Diego area, check with Discover Baja because they have been coordinating with an American mining company to pick up donations
and get them to Mulege. The company is with the mines on Isla San Marcos north of Mulege. They trucked down supplies this week and a lot was taken
which is great.
So, if you go to their website at www.discoverbaja.com, you can e-mail or call them and tell them lindsay referred you. The owners are Carol and Hugh. I took clothing on Monday and
they said that they would continue to take in donations. My Mexican relatives in Mulege said that relief was getting to the town and the affected
families really appreciated the support. Some needs that they mentioned were diapers for families, powdered formula, tents, tarps, canned food. The
schools in Mulege were also hit hard by the flooding so basic school supplies will also be much appreciated.
Hope that this info helps, let me know if you have any questions and thanks for being part of the relief efforts.

Glad to help...when all of this happened I felt so far away and unable to help family and friends so I'm very grateful to people who are helping to
coordinate these kinds of efforts. People in the community are also very heartened by the help.
All the supplies that you mentioned will be great. My daughter's dad and his family members mostly did not have flood damage but so many others did so
it's a tough clean up process to get through
Thanks again for all your efforts!!

Yeah to Smart and Final! All I had to do was ask. I just recieved these cash cards from smart and final for $150. Could you help me out with a
reliable person to transport from san diego to where things are needed. I am thinking bleach and paper products but if you know more about the needs;
info is greatly appreciated. I read that donations should go to the mission church or fire dept. Do you know what I should do. Maybe Discover Baja?
Thanks a zillion. Love, April
