FROM: Ever Chavez, FUNDarte, Inc.

Dear friends and colleagues,
As you may know, by several media reports, Gema Corredera has been in a detention center in Puerto Rico since November 14. Apparently, she was detained at the airport due to some random immigration operation they were conducting there. Gema is in the process of adjusting her legal resident status through the Cuban Adjustment Act. However, the authoirities in charge of the case have taken longer than expected to release her under humanitarian parole, in spite of the efforts of her family, friends, and lawyers involved. She is facing health problems while in detention.
As a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and assisiting artists in the world, we have presented Gema (Gema y Pavel) in several occassions, for your enjoyment. Now we need your help. FUNDarte is joining efforts to help Gema Corredera in these difficult times.
An account has been created in Banco Popular (BPPR): Comité Pro-Fondos Gema Corredera – Account Number 203336470 to cover her legal and personal expenses. Any deposit and assistance you can provide will be greatly appreciated. These are the branches of Banco Popular in Miami. Please go today to the one closest to you and help Gema.
Thanks!
