The food scandal impacts Neuquén with thousands of kilos of milk

“From unofficial information that has reached me, I believe that no, that we have been left out. On Tuesday of this week I entered three requests for a total of 4,280 kilos of milk for the first two organizations of the west of Neuquén. Somehow they gave me hope that they would be attended to and the others, since they entered a little later, because I received the information also a little late, they stayed there. Yesterday (Wednesday) I sent other audios to the foundation, to see if they will respond to the four requests we presented or at least some of them, and I did not receive a response. “We wouldn’t be on the list.”commented Hector Rimarothe local reference of the foundation.

He expressed himself extremely disappointed and at the same time stated: “If that were the case, We apologize to all those who run the dining rooms and picnic areas in the western area of ​​Neuquén, with whom I contacted and in some way I also nourished them with the hope of receiving this precious food such as milk. Now we will have to rethink how we continue from now on.”

One of the affected picnic areas is located in Cuenca XV, where the solidarity task is enormous. Natalia Brizuela runs a community kitchen in the neighborhood’s SUM that responds to thousands of neighbors. The largest amount of powdered milk was destined for that area of ​​the city.

The other social leader harmed by this situation works for Barriletes en Bandadaadded to Caritas, the renowned organization who opened a breakfast room for homeless people In the cathedral from this city.

“I apologize to all of them if this does not ultimately come to fruition. We still have a thread of hope for something to arrive,” Rimaro concluded, speaking to Channel 7.
