This weekend, if you need to go to a Trader Joe's in Northeast L.A., please consider the one in Eagle Rock (on Colorado Blvd.) and purchasing from a table outside (very colorful cupcakes, lemonade and hand-made scarves). It's a fundraiser for helping abused women in Bolivia. I was there on Saturday, early afternoon, and they said they'd be there the next weekend.
One of the young women at the table (teens???) told me abuse of females is ingrained in Bolivian culture, so there's a lot to overcome.They gave me a website about their organization, but by the time I got home, I couldn't remember the key words. If I'm there this weekend, I'll write it down.
(I'm trying to think of people I know who might like a scarf next Xmas. It's always good to get an early start on Xmas.)
