The Annak ti Villasis of Canada
is proud to present Mrs. Reynalda Lagleva Ramos as a candidate for Mrs. Villasis 2010.
This is the association’s first attempt to put up a candidate
for Mrs. Villasis and as you may very well know, this is a big endeavor for us. Mrs.
Ramos has accepted this challenge to help raise awareness and funds for the renovation and further
improvements of our public auditorium.
As a community of Villasinians
living abroad, let us unite and come together as we support and give back to our town and townmates the many blessings that
we have.
Enclosed you will find Mrs. Ramos’
introduction and solicitation letter. We look forward to your generous support.
