“Children of the Dump” + Pizza – Saturdays at Cafe Roma at 2:30 pm

This isn’t exactly entertainment but it’s an event, or rather, an introduction to events. And it’s not a big deal charity event, just an opportunity to have lunch with a bunch of kids eating pizza.

Most Saturday afternoons, Art Fumerton brings about 30-40 kids from the School of Champions in Mojoneres to Café Roma for a pizza party. Different kids are brought each week. If you have ever been interested in volunteering at the School or getting involved in helping the kids (formerly known as the “Children of the Dump“), this is a good opportunity to see what you might be getting yourself into, so to speak.

It’s best to call Cafe Roma each week you want to attend because some weeks the kids are doing other things.

You will be warmly received. No donation is necessary as this was paid for by Café Roma’s customers by their generous donations at special events.
