Second edition of the charity dinner SolidARAN
Last 23 rd. of March the second edition of the charity dinner SolidARAN was held in the Hotel AC Baqueira Ski Resort and some of the funds raised will go to the Mountaineers for the Himalayas Foundation.
All the organization and me are very pleased with all the support given by all the participants. I will like to underline all the support of the people of the Aran Valley who came to the dinner. Thanks to the work of EVALIA, company in charge of the organization of events in the Aran Valley and to Keith Kirwen the participation of the people of the Aran Valley has been amazing this year. They have transmitted us a lot of affection and support in this project during all the year, collecting clothes, contributing financially and participating in all the events we have organised during all the year. Thanks to all.
A LOT OF HEARTFELT SOLIDARITY IN THE VALLEY
I have just received a DVD which was delivered by courier. On the cover it says ‘Era Innocentada 2011’. I couldn’t help but smile. It is one of the best gifts that I’ve been lucky enough to receive this Christmas. Almost immediately memories of the children, who are being cared for by the Himalayan Mountain Foundation thousands of kilometres away, came flooding back to me. They are the reason for battling on and organising events like the last charity race that we held in the Aran Valley.
