"Día de la canción criolla" fundraising event
Acknowledgements
We would like to thank to everybody who attended our latest event on the 1st November to celebrate The Cancion Criolla day, a traditional Peruvian coastal music and rhythms. Our special thanks to the artists who performed on that occasion, the trio Ayer y Hoy (Lalo Rivera,Walter Conde, Felix Apolaya) , the Afro Peruvian dancing group Ritmo y Sabor (Stefanie,Tatiana, Marilyn, Evelyn ). And also our thanks to Eddie and Rosa for allowing us to use their venue, the Inca Arch, and to DJ Gustavo, Talise, Jessica , Johnny , Fidel (photos), for their collaboration .
It was an enjoyable evening where criolla music mixed with music from the Andes thanks to the participation of Peruvian artists Sofía Buchuck and Farylin Erasu. Our thanks to Allan for his wonderful comments about the party , you can visit Allan’s blog at http://malarkeyenperu.blogspot.com/
The money raised will allow us to give support to a school situated in San Andres in the Pisco area which suffered the effects of the earthquake last year and are still waiting for more help. They have requested help for basic educational materials. We are planning to send a donation before the end of this year.
Any donation will be very welcome as we would like to continue helping the mothers club in the Andean community of Chiara in Andahuaylas and also to help other community groups . You can contact our treasurer Liz.
We would like to mention the collection and donation of baby clothes made by Linda who works at Kings College Hospital. The donation has been sent to Grupo Amistad in Callao so they can be distributed among poor mothers of the shanty towns in Lima. We are also looking forward to auction four paintings kindly donated by the Peruvian painter Carlos Díaz. We hope to do so in one of our forthcoming events.
