Amigos de las Americas will hold its annual fundraising over the holiday season, selling Texas Ruby Red grapefruit ($30 a box), locally grown florist quality poinsettias ($15 each), and organic, fair-trade coffee from Latin America, whole bean or ground ($15 a pound). The grapefruit can be bought and donated back to a local food bank, while the poinsettias can be donated to a care facility of choice. The Amigos program sends volunteers to Latin American countries to collaborate on projects addressing community health, equality through sports and teamwork, and environmental preservation, in addition to other projects. To order, visit eastbay.amigosinternational.org and click on the order link, or email Mary De Luna at deluna.mary@gmail.com.
