Aguas Buenas families in need receive 338 turkeys

As part of Thanksgiving week initiatives, Aguas Buenas Mayor Karina Nieves Serrano, along with San Juan District Sen. Juan Oscar Morales Rodríguez, delivered 338 turkeys to families in vulnerable situations.

The families were identified through a joint effort with community leaders, non-profit entities, religious leaders and school principals, ensuring that the gesture reached those who needed it most in a holiday week marked by a deep sense of gratitude, reflection and family unity. The mayor stressed the importance of such initiatives to strengthen the spirit of solidarity in disadvantaged communities.  “This season, our commitment is to bring joy and hope to families facing difficult situations,” Nieves Serrano said in a written statement. “Thanks to the support of Senator Juan Oscar Morales, we were able to make this delivery that represents a gesture of unity and solidarity with our people.”  Morales echoed the impact of the initiative on the most vulnerable communities.  “It is our responsibility as public servants to be present and contribute to improving the quality of life of our families,” he said. “This delivery of turkeys is an example of how working as a team we can make a significant difference in the homes of Aguas Buenas and throughout the district.”
