HOW WE HELP

This is not an ONG, society or foundation. No employees or structures are supported with the money of the collections. Each single euro received is converted to food with no deductions for any charge. The logistic is very simple, and both who collect the money and assist on the delivery use their own resources to accomplish their work.
For each collection I design a number of well known people (2 to 3) in order to act as recipient of the money. Once finished the collection, these persons count all money received and send an e-mail to all supporters communicating how much was collected by this recipient. Subsequently I put all together, buy the food and distribute it. At the moment of the distribution the responsible of the comedores check the invoice and sign it. Afterwards, I make a photo of the invoices signed and put them on the net. Note: previous invoices photos available at: http://my.inbox.com/photos/castro
For any question please do not hesitate to contact me.

HOW WE STARTED

Dear friends,Too many things happened since this collection begun almost six years ago. But, do you remember how it started? It was during the Wally Yachts Christmas party in Monte Carlo when the pioneering interior designer Alessandra “Ale” Negrato moved from one table to other collecting money in order to give me for buying food for the poor kids in my home town. That was on December 2001, when Argentina was going trough it worst economical crisis ever.With the first move done, then was easy to keep it moving, year after year. When Wally landed into the peaceful city of Fano, Italy, we got many new friends desirous to help. Thanks to them and the faithful Monaco office –including valuable generosity of Doc Luca Bassani Antivari-, we’ve collected enough money to buy over 10 tons of food in between 2001 and 2006!Last year found me involved on an America's Cup team, moving in between Seattle and Valencia. Convinced to keep going with the collection I organized a new collection into the BMW Oracle Racing team. Great responsibility of it success belongs to the awesome Saskia Green and the BMW “dream team” of German engineers. The Argentinean legion into the team and JYD guys responded over expectations.But my biggest happiness was receiving the collection done at Wally. It was done even I was no there! This time was Matteo “Mat” Bisio who granted the continuity of the collection again together with the always helpful Jaqueline Dalmasso in Monaco. The wheel was moving alone.This “solidarity community” of friends is growing and needs new ways of communication. With this intention I created HELP FOR KIDS Blog. My intention is to use this blog not only to keep you up to date but also to be a way to invite new friends to be part of this.
