It’s been a long time since I have taken the time to blog. The August trip was full of surprises, volunteers, good things, good activities and lots of emotions…both good and bad. It is just so difficult to put it all into words….so, I haven’t blogged. I’m sorry if you’ve missed seeing updates on the blog.
We did post a new update on the orphanage. It’s now on the web site. It is also a Power Point presentation that I can e-mail to you if you would like. You can help us spread the word about what we’re doing at the orphanage. The presentation may help us recruit new volunteers and it may also help us bring in donations. Please contact us if you would like it to be e-mailed to you. It will be in a slightly different format than what you see on the web site. When you look at the web site, you’ll see a link to the new presentation/update right on the first page…in the middle of the page.
January is the month when the kids start back to school. We received 96 new Oakland Raider backpacks and those will be shipped to the orphanage for the start of their new school year. The kids will need school uniforms, school supplies, school shoes and more. If you want to help, come to Guatemala in January. We’ll find a bed for you and put you to work.
Thanks for taking the time to read about us today… and don’t forget to check out the new presentation.
