Community Sale

Home Beneficiaries Projects About Us Links

The well attended Community Sale on April 12, 2003 at James Lick High School in San Jose raised enough funds to provide 11 scholarships for Consipe. The funds came from sales of generous donations of clothing and food by volunteers and friends of FOB.  Clothing included dresses, dance outfits, jackets and suits. The food included fricase,  saltenas, sandwiches de chola, quinoa soup, quinoa quiche, quinoa salad, sodas and bottled water.

Although it was raining heavily, there was a large turnout, and all the food was sold out. Everyone who was involved with the event was happy with the experience. Its success has encouraged other groups to organize similar community sales in the future.
