TBH CARITAS DEC.2010
Caritas is a national Spanish charity run through the Catholic church and has centres in most towns. Its main aim is to help the needy and poverty stricken residents in conjunction with social services.  
The head of Rojales church, Father Virgilio Santonia Vila was delighted to accept the boxes and bags full of goodies from Tony Wagstaff, chairman of the
Torrevieja Barbershop Harmonisers.
Several members of the Torrevieja Barbershop Harmonisers went on a Christmas shopping spree with a difference last Thursday. Armed with 700 euros raised at recent performances, the group  shopped till they dropped at a local supermarket and filled five cars with a range of goods and foods which they then took to Caritas in Rojales.
