Let’s all help each other. “JUNTOS” is the center for reconstruction for the Joso area.
JUNTOS provides rooms , serves as a regional exchange center, works on a daily
basis for consultation about troubles you might have, and also rents tools forcleaning up so that you can restore your lives and the Joso area may bereconstructed.The original was ‘ JUNTOS not only provides rooms .. but ...’. Thisis very difficult to think about for non-native speakers, so I changed it into
simpler grammar.
There is nothing different between nationalities. JUNTOS stands by you.
