Letter to donors and sponsors dated April 16, 2017
Dear Friend:
The committee members for the Noche Magica fundraiser wish to express our deep gratitude to you for your participation in support of the inaugural fundraising event for Keeping Loreto Magical. Through your contributions, we were able to raise over $15,000 USD which will be used for helping to perform testing for the presence of heavy metals along our Loreto beaches as well as continued legal and municipal outreach efforts to create the Nopolo Natural Park. Keeping Loreto Magical was created through a grass-roots effort focused on . . . .
Participants in Noche Magica 2017 viewed Erik Stevens’s skilful short videos showing why Keep Loreto Magical projects are worth their support. Click above to view the video “Inspire, Inform, Act.” The Spanish-language version is here.
. . . retaining the natural beauty of Loreto while looking for ways to improve the health, well being and economy of the municipality. The activities sponsored and supported by The Ocean Foundation must fall under four categories:
1. activities that highlight the natural beauty of Loreto
2. activities that promote alternative economies for Loreto
3. activities that bring officials and citizens together to ensure we understand the laws and create better collaboration and participation for the protection of Loreto´s water sources and coastline
4. scientific research and monitoring to promote a healthy coast and ocean.
We thank you for your commitment to inspire, inform and act for a cause dedicated to protecting the beautiful and fragile environment we live in, our Loreto Magico. We are looking forward to our second Noche Magica fundraiser next March 2018. You can expect another fun-filled evening with great food and wine, enjoyable company, fabulous entertainment and exciting silent auction items.
Best regards,
Cecilia Fischer
Loreto Coordinator, The Ocean Foundation
