| Purpose: |
DURING THE PERIOD OF JANUARY 14TH TO JANUARY 25TH, 2024, BENTO LEGACY, LLC EMBARKED ON A PHILANTHROPIC TRIP TO MAIO, CAPE VERDE, WITH THE PURPOSE OF SUPPORTING LOCAL SCHOOLS. THIS TRIP WAS UNDERTAKEN BY THE MEMBERS OF OUR LLC, ALSO KNOWN AS "THE COLLECTIVE." WHILE IN MAIO, WE VISITED THREE SCHOOLS AND IDENTIFIED VARIOUS NEEDS WITHIN THE EDUCATIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE. ONE PRESSING ISSUE WE ENCOUNTERED WAS THE NEED FOR REPAIRS TO A WATER TANK AT ONE OF THE SCHOOLS. RECOGNIZING THE IMPORTANCE OF CLEAN WATER FOR THE STUDENTS AND STAFF, WE PLEDGED FINANCIAL SUPPORT TOWARDS THE REPAIR OF THE WATER TANK. OUR PHILANTHROPIC PROJECT ENTAILS PROVIDING $550.00 TO AID IN THE REPAIR OF THE WATER TANK. THE MEMBERS OF BENTO LEGACY, LLC HAVE COLLECTIVELY AGREED TO CONTRIBUTE TOWARDS THIS CAUSE. FOUR MEMBERS WILL CONTRIBUTE $125.00 EACH, AND ONE MEMBER WILL CONTRIBUTE $50.00, TOTALING $550.00. THESE FUNDS WILL BE REMITTED TO DANIEL, A LOCAL CONTACT, THROUGH THE CATHOLIC CHURCH IN MAIO, WHO WILL OVERSEE THE REPAIR PROCESS. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE IN MAIO, THE COLLECTIVE EXPLORED OPPORTUNITIES FOR INVESTMENT IN REAL ESTATE. WE VISITED SEVERAL PROPERTIES, INCLUDING LAND AND BUILDINGS, LOCATED IN CALIETA, PORTO PRETA, BISHONA BEACH, AND OTHERS WITH THE INTENTION OF POTENTIAL ACQUISITION. A MEETING WITH MAYOR MIGUEL ROSA PROVED FRUITFUL, AS HE ADVISED US ON NAVIGATING THE LOCAL REAL ESTATE MARKET. MAYOR ROSA RECOMMENDED THAT WE RETAIN OR SECURE LEGAL REPRESENTATION TO PURSUE FORMER BENTO LAND AND PROPERTY INTERESTS IN THE REGION. |
