On Wednesday May 8th we had our “Tamales” party to celebrate our volunteers who dedicate their time to participate in all our outreach programs here at the MRL. We also had the chance to celebrate our award recipients; some of them could not be present and we missed them. Congratulations to all of them, and thank you to our outreach participants for their hard work and commitment, in order to improve the educational process of our schools, teachers and young students.
