(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I must tell you about Mr. Ramiro Paz. He is a modest man but an extremely community aware person. Mr. Paz is involved with an event called Empty Bowls. It is an event by the Food Bank RGV, Inc. It showcases artists and local culinary art but it has a purpose: to raise funds for a worthy charity that fights hunger.
Paz is an artist and always puts forth his best efforts as an artist for the hungry in the Valley community.
Veteran's Middle School is lucky to have a person of this caliber in their midst. I just thought you should know.
Sincerely,
Alice Warner
