Baja Children’s Home in Need of Help
One of the AOK/Wahoo’s children’s homes that we have worked with to take care of is in urgent need of food and supplies. This children’s home is on your way to Ensenada on theFree (Hwy 1) road that you travel onto Ensenada. These are some of the nicest kids in Baja and I encourage you to go meet them on your way down to the Baja 500.
The Chidren’s home is called Rancho Milagros and they are located between KM86 and KM87 with coordinates of 31.963780, -116.735951 and map can be found at http://tinyurl.com/knt3223. When you get to the gate at the children’s home honk your horn and somebody willunlock the gate and let you drive in. Ask for Joshua as he takes care of the home and enjoys talking to the race community. Here is a past video that was done by the genius of Jimmy Lee Cook: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLKaUhoreZo

They are looking to install solar panels which would decrease their electric and generator costs tremendously. If you have access to Solar panels and installations, please talk directly to Joshua at the home or myself. This would need to be a 100% donation and not a discount of services.
