2017,volunteers in the Puget Sound area created the Boriken
Foundation, formerly La Isla Foundation, a non-profit organization, to
help respond and rebuild PUERTO RICO AFTER HURRICANE MARIA. We have
helped individuals, families, businesses and non-profit organizations
on the island to establish more sustainable methods of long-term
recovery. More recently we have been helping families with food,
water, blankets, hygiene products, and storage container homes for
those left homeless by the earthquakes in the southern part of the
island. Online pricing*: $20 youth $30 adult general $40 adult w/wine
