Monasterio de Nuestra Señora de Porta Coeli

What it is

A community of Franciscan nuns of the Third Order Regular at the Monasterio de Nuestra Señora de Porta Coeli in El Zarzoso (Salamanca), one of the enclosed houses supported by Fundación DeClausura.

What it needs

The part of the monastery used as a spirituality center is in very poor condition. The appeal pays for refurbishing the rooms, enlarging the bathrooms and replacing the old electrical installation.

Before you act. The appeal pages show a target and a percentage raised, not the amount in euros.

About 200 timber ceiling beams in the first floor of the cloister are failing from age, damp and wood-boring insects; many must be replaced and the rest treated. The 'Apadrina una viga' (sponsor a beam) appeal prices each beam at 300 euros.
