Castelo de Sohos is a charity that provides much needed help for the poor of the Silves Council area. This includes social care, food (with support from Banco Alimentar), clothes personal hygene products and other much needed items for those living in hardship. Castelo de Sonhos has been supported this year by the Silves Rotary Club and the €1000 from the two clubs, along with a 10% much appreciated donation from Continente Supermarket in Guia, was the latest contribution to this very worthwhile cause.
