This was confirmed yesterday in an interview with El Vocero Sonia M. Carrasquillo, executive director of the Foundation.

"This is a group of fans of Johnny Depp that follows it in all its filming commitments around the world. They select a charitable cause of where the shooting is known Hollywood actor and delivered a gift to the institution on the day of the birthday of the actor in your name. It's like a kind of tribute to the actor as well, "explained Carrasquillo.

According to the executive told, it received an email Viraldi (on behalf of the members of "Johnny Depp Zone"), where she requested information about the Foundation and its financial statement expressing their desire to cooperate with the case as part "The Birthday Project".

"We consulted with the vice president 'senior' Hospital, the Cross and graduated Sunday with the president of the Board of Directors, Wanda Navarro, and both gave me the green light. We are awaiting further information and arrangements, "said Carrasquillo.

Meanwhile, as on the "Johnny Depp Zone" was announced as an official selection of the San Jorge Children's Foundation as the non-profit institution of Puerto Rico that will benefit from his "Birthday Project."

"We are also making efforts to see if Johnny can visit the babies in the Hospital. And Amaury Nolasco, who is also in the movie ( 'The Rum Diary') with him, told us that you adjust your schedule to visit, "said Carrasquillo.

How nice !!! Wow....what a wonderful article. :applause2:

I feel like we (the zone) are a bit of special magic fairy dust that surely Johnny leaves behind where ever he goes. Sounds silly, but I am very proud of the zone and Johnny!!

Thank you so much for posting this emma, a tribute to the zone indeed and to Johnny. I hope Johnny does visit the hospital, that would be wonderful and just the kind of thing he enjoys, if so though I hope it will be a private visit and not publicised or photographed by anyone.

A sprinkling of fairy dust, wherever he goes. :heart:

Well, I can say that I am so proud of this very special place we have here. And I am so delighted to know that a place that has welcomed me into it, also does so much for the causes that Mr. Depp has tugging on his heart strings.
I am so proud to know that people such as Theresa, PtP, and all that represent the zone are out there, doing what they do and taking care of so many things.
And it is nice to know that others recognize them as well. :applause2:

It's such a warm fuzzy feeling to be part of a community that can reach out in this way. Thank you to all those who first came up with this amazing idea to not only honor Johnny and say "Happy Birthday", but to help those in need...and to those who continue to put their own time into organizing these tributes so that we may all participate, honor Johnny and reach out. It feels quite an honor to have our cause made public in such a way and can only help raise awareness. A big pat on the back to everyone!!! :yahoo: :yahoo: :applause2: :applause2:

Wow! I take great pride everytime I log in here(and I do it several times a day) What an honor not only to be a part of this lovely group of people but a great honor to share in the life of such a wonderful man! I, too, hope he visits the hospital, I am sure he will find time to do it. He always seems to find time in his life and heart to visit kiddies in need and as we have seen many times over to stop and say hello to his followers.

Thanks for the article. A nice feeling early on a Saturday morning. :heart:
