2nd Annual Shoebox Drive for the Elderly

A great success.... Thank you for your generosity.
.
Thanks to all who participated in the 2nd Annual Shoebox Drive for the Elderly - more than one hundred filled shoeboxes were delivered by Castelo de Sonhos to needy elderly people of Silves, along with food parcels.

David and Celia Mossman the organisers this drive also run a Friends Luncheon Club which hold a raffle at each lunch - some of the 550 Euros raised from the raffle during 2006 paid for some the much needed food.
