DESCRIPTION:Join us April 14 at 5:30 PM for the third annual benefit for Esperanza de 
 Libertad. We will have a vegan dinner, a slide show presentation by United 
 States Project Coordinator Stella Sythe, and a silent auction. Blackbird 
 Stitches will play talismanic dirt folk, and Best Witches women’s choir 
 will sing. We will have activities for children and will sell vegan snacks. 
 A $20 donation is suggested, or $30 including dinner. Nobody turned away 
 for lack of funds. \nCome support this women-run project that was started 
 by Stella Sythe, a longtime Sonoma County resident.\nStella’s exciting 
 slide show presentation illustrates Esperanza de Libertad’s mission of 
 rescuing wild animals from captivity and rehabilitating them, and shows our 
 progress towards building our sanctuary. It also gives a fascinating and 
 educational look at life in Bolivia.\nOur first two benefits were a lot of 
 fun and were great successes. Esperanza de Libertad’s first benefit 
 raised money to buy 115 acres of land in Bolivia. Our second benefit raised 
 money to build volunteer housing. \nNow we have a beautiful building, and 
 we’ve planted gardens and fruit trees on the land. We’ve hired a guard 
 and his family to live on the land, protecting it from illegal hunting and 
 logging. We also have two young rescued monkeys! This year’s benefit will 
 raise money for operating expenses, including paying the guard and feeding 
 Tomi and Preto, our first resident monkeys.\nWe are looking for volunteers 
 to help at the event and for donations to the silent auction. For more 
 information or to donate, call 481-5386.\n\n\n\n
