Dear friends,
We’re excited to share project updates and photos of the multi-community water, sanitation and school project we broke ground on late this summer in the region of La Ponsoña, Matagalpa. With one water capture, we can deliver water to seven communities at once, leveraging costs and efficiency as we scale the water system technology that has been our mainstay for 17 years. Our team continues to prove themselves as they put their expertise to work. I hope you enjoy the project update below.
In addition to the news from the field and community stories we typically share in these newsletters, today I wanted to share a bit more about those in the US who give their time and talents to make this project a reality.
We are fortunate over the years to have gathered a group of dedicated professionals who are writing grants, reviewing legal documents, doing all the multi-currency bookkeeping, preparing and reviewing financials, producing events, writing letters and content, providing IT technical support for our Nicaragua team, and keeping our community surveys and databases updated and relevant. We have a dedicated Board of Directors who provide guidance, strategy, and support in more ways than I can say. Just as the projects in Nicaragua are powered by volunteer community labor, the entire non-profit is powered by volunteers in the US who give from their hearts, collaborating through shared vision and goals. It’s a pretty special group of people, and I’m grateful to be a part of it.
Sincerely,
Selina
