Congratulations to the winners! Unfortunately, we were not able to help out everyone because of the lack of funds. Regardless, we want to thank our sponsors Hincha Clothing Brand, Illicit Graphics, Firme Mezcal, Supreme Asphalt Services, and Revolucion Cantina. Also, we would like to thank La Familia Sanchez-Valencia from Orange County, CA, La Familia Toribio from Baldwin Park, CA, and La Familia Gutierrez from Riverside County, CA, for their donations. Finally, we would like to send a big shout-out to our anonymous donors (you know who you are), who contributed to this incredible cause and did not even want any credit. Now that is truly admirable! 
If we haven’t contacted you, we will be doing so in the next day or so. If you do not hear from us and your name is on the list, please email us at daca@eltrionline.com or call us at 860-478-8041.
