This way we are giving more support to the community, especially in these difficult times."-FRANCISCO RAMÍREZ:-"This project...I don't know why...when you are here you feel very good vibes. This has been an icon, an inspiration for many others.""This is the correct way to overcome (the situation) in the community, there's no other way than collaborating, there's no other way than identifying ourselves with the same feeling. We need to get connected and get rid of that education the system gave us, which taught us to divide, to be selfish and have money...and it is thought money is all but it is nothing, it's only a means but it will not give you satisfaction they way we experience it here."-ESTEVE WANG, LOCAL WHO DONATES FOOD.
