AF now a 501(c)(3)!
Friends of AJL: It’s taken us over a year and a half, but now, thanks to the long-suffering efforts of our accountant, Rob Crowder, the Arajuno Foundation is now officially a non-profit public charity. That’s right, your donations are now tax-deductible. On another front, thanks to 20 volunteers plus 2 energetic communities, Santa Barbara & Mirador, we will complete the 2 new turtle-rearing ponds ahead of schedule. We will also have time to begin planting Giant Bamboo along the eroded banks of the Arajuno river in front of both communities. Santa Barbara has also finished its new dining hall in time for the event.Looks Great! Plus Santa Barbara will receive $300 from lunches sold to the group. Do you have any idea how much money $300 is to a community such as Santa Barbra? A LOT!
