We distributed beans and rice to families in colonia San Antonio at the south end of Nuevo Progreso. Men, women and children gathered around our Jeep while we tried to make sure no one was left out. There were a few sick people, so we gave out some Tylenol and cold medicines.
We had a large supply of flip-flops and sandals sent from friends in Illinois. It was fun to be able to give everyone a pair of colorful flip-flops, and we still have enough to take to other colonias. Our thanks go to friends back home in Illinois for supplying us with so many pairs of new and almost new flip-flops.
The picture shows some of the women and children who received flip-flops in Nuevo Progreso.
