If you live in Puerto Rico, or know of anyone who lives there but can’t reach their family members abroad, help Univision connect them. Ask the people on the island for their names and location, as well as the contact information for their relatives abroad. Then share that information with us through a private message on Univision Puerto Rico´s Facebook page or send it to uninoticiasdigital@univision.net. Univision will contact their family members abroad with the information you provide. #PRActivate
