Needy kids win big at Ocelot event

Guests packed Ocelot, the blues and tapas restaurant in La Antigua, for drinks, food and fun to support a good cause on Thursday night, Jan. 20.

The fundraiser supported the Education for the Children Foundation, a Britain-based NGO that just opened a modern, new school for up to 510 children in Jocotenango. Several teachers from Escuela Proyecto La Esperanza were among the many patrons.

Ocelot owner Shaun Paul Griffiths generously donated one-third of the night’s take to EFTC, which is based in Nottingham, England.

Donors and volunteers are needed. For details see www.eftc.org.uk
