Dear Dr. Gordon:

We realized three trips La Habana-La Laguna, for mobilizate the 10 persons and 20 big bags!, with medicines, school suplies, clothes and other materials for families and students. Too, we moved materials and 4 volunteers (Richard, Brian. Dena and Marco) to Quiloma, where thay will wotk in repair and construct a new fences to Primary School in the community.

He, with other peace volunteer will work in prepare a proposal about the clinic and possible traspass to medical NGO or public health department of Yoro. It´s only a proposal that they elaborate with Tribe Council for to give NYHelp for analyze. Too, he will work in construction of fence in La Laguna school some days.

Mission Trip Underway

On Sunday, February 21, an 11-member mission group left for Honduras for two weeks in and around La Laguna, Honduras.

Along with running a medical clinic, working on education, possibly new roofs, the group will be looking at new sites to expand to for our project. We may begin working with another very poor village in the valley of Sulaco, over on the other side of the mountains from La Laguna.

Stay tuned – a trip is being planned for this summer!
