Montreal – Colombianelondon and ColPas. Father Rafael García Herreros (1909 – 1992) was one of the greatest benefactors of the poor in Colombia. Thanks to him, many families got their housing. One of his main activity to get funds for his projects were the “Banquete del Millón” created in Bogotá 50 years ago, a benefit dinner to rise funds for the building of houses in poor communities. Now it will be here in Montreal dedicated to Colombia.
The coordination of the program is made by the Honorable Consul in Montreal, Martha Lucía Piñeros with the partipation of Camacho in the organizer committee. There are 200 seats ready with a contribution prize of $80 CD for the participants. Those who want to contribute but can not come to the event, will have their own seat marked with their names.
Remember, the funds are destined for housing in poor communities in Colombia. You are welcome to participate in this type of activities to make the dream of a poor Colombian family real.
