This is an opportunity for our more local supporters. Saturday, June 6th, Under the Same Moon will be selling its wares, with many Pride themed keychains, earrings, and purses, at Boston Pride on the Boston common between noon and 6 pm. We have a steady stream of sales during the entire time, and like to have 3 people available to take sales and keep an eye on things. This year we are low on people who can help out and are looking for one or two more people who can lend a hand between noon and 3 pm or 3 pm to 6 pm. Only requirement is to have a smart phone and have a 5 minute orientation on site on how to use the card reader. We typically have a very successful sale and enjoy the positive vibes of the day. Let us know if you are interested in lending a hand!

Visitors come out of curiosity, out of a desire to learn more, to help change lives, and more. And, they return time and again. Personally, I think it's because nothing beats those brightly shining eyes and those hugs.

I think Avery Romanoli is hooked.

Once again, through the generosity of so many, we were able to ship a HUGE container of children’s underwear and children’s acetaminophen to the kids at Bendicion. Julio identified these as items where the need is great and the parents’ ability to purchase them is almost nonexistent.

I suspect it’s difficult for most of us to imagine that children would be excited to receive such seemingly mundane items. But, in their world, these kids receive few gifts and little to no new clothing. These gifts remind them that there are people who care very much about their well-being and serve to reinforce their identification with the school, the importance of education, and the community at large.

We are so grateful to each and every one of you who participated in this year’s drive. For almost a month, packages arrived at the house daily. Others sent along funds so we could fill in the gaps. While some packages included the sender’s identification, others did not. If we haven’t reached out to thank you for your generous gift(s), let us know. We so very much want to acknowledge your kindness.

Donations are always welcome. Monetary donations can be made through our website at underthesamemoon.org, through Venmo or via check mailed to: UTSM, 84 Regatta Road, Weymouth MA 02191.

You all give us hope for a better world for the children at Bendicion de Dios.
