Steps-of-Love focuses on helping Mexican children in Rocky Point break a cycle of poverty through education. She and her family used to vacation in Rocky Point. When their business, Duncan Farms, took off; she looked around for a new challenge and settled on helping the kids where they vacationed. She took a locally driven approach and teamed up with residents to staff and grow the program to where they currently support almost 600 students. Schools in Mexico are ½ day so Steps of Love provides another ½ day of education to allow kids to catch up and then continue to learn at an accelerated pace. Her efforts to move from an outsider with limited Spanish skills to a trusted, Spanish-speaking,  community leader are quite a story. A side bar is that Duncan Farms is also a strong supporter of Feed Our Babies.

Last night, Rob participated in an event at Save the Family to kickoff a new community awareness and fund raising campaign.  Rob presented Greg Boone a check for $5,000 from our golf event.  Next year, we should present the check at the golf luncheon so many more people can be aware of our event partner(s) and see first hand that the money they paid into the event is supporting good community organizations.

We continue to be impressed with Save the Family, and  encourage all club members to visit their band new website which contains three compelling but brief videos that are worth viewing.  Click here to view

 

The check came from the Bryant AC who is also the title sponsor for our golf tournament on April 17, 2020.  The check from Bryant AC will be donated to Feed Our Babies along with a $2,000 check from our Foundation.

The following photo is the actual presentation to Feed Our Babies. Joni Socato, the founder, receives the check from Dave.  Club members Wally, Soni, and Mo participated.
