Annual Charity Walk – Charity chosen

The Charity this year has been chosen and will be for helping a child named Vincente whom you may have read about in the latest copy of Tomorrow Magazine.
Vincente requires life saving surgery that exceeds €8,000 and through the Local Organisation that we have helped before, The Saint Vincent de Paul Society, any funding will be passed through a managing group to deal with medical payments.
To further help this charity, the article in Tomorrow Magazine indicates that both metal and plastic bottle tops can be saved as part of their “Lids for Life” campaign.  Amovate are happy to collect them on the behalf of the group.
Several other groups are doing the same around the Western Algarve to help with the funding.           http://tomorrowalgarve.com/lets-help-vicente
Tops should be kept separate (plastic and metal) and placed in sealed bags or plastic bottles which can be left at The Old School House; perhaps you could ask your local hostelry to pass these on as well.
The Charity Walk has raised thousands in the past through donations and sponsoring so remember “every little helps”.

Aljezur Municipal Holiday,
I greet in a compatriots way,
All the Aljezurenses, who over the decades have contributed to
the development of our municipality, making it more attractive, more inclusive, with
more and better conditions for all who live, work, or seek vacation.
We live in complex times, where the principles of solidarity, fraternity and the
care for others, as well as environmental issues, call us to a increasingly demanding responsibility,
increasing. The future of our children, of our grandchildren, OUR FUTURE, depends on how we are in
this society, more aware that our actions can influence the present, but especially the future.
I want this day, which marks the beginning of the holiday celebrations of the Municipality of
Aljezur, with Night A, Aljezur’s multicultural festival and the City Day – 29 de August, welcome and
invite all Aljezurenses to join these celebrations. Day of celebration, celebration, date, but also day to
continue to work and improve, what Aljezur has to offer more varied areas.
A special word to all the associative movement and its leaders, to the various public entities represented
in our territory, companies and entrepreneurs who have faith with the Council and its potential. To all
public entities and with whom we have cooperative and collaborative relations, to these a special greeting.
To the City Council Workers, who throughout the year develop their
work, for more and better service, recognition for their dedication and commitment,
in your mission.
To the colleagues of the Municipal Executive, as well as to the various executives of the
Parish, Aljezur, Bordeira, Odeceixe and Rogil, as their respective members of the Municipal Assembly
and Parish Assemblies, a word of recognition and appreciation, at the same time challenging, to give best
of you, for the good of our county, and above all put the superior
interest in defending the development of the Municipality of Aljezur and its population.
To all of you the kindest regards and also this a Municipal Holiday, where we celebrate Aljezur.
The Mayor of Aljezur,
– José Manuel Lucas Gonçalves –
