​

We always need support and help towards the cost of running and maintaining the Brigada truck.  This is the lifeline to reach the villages where there is no bus service.  And in an emergency, the only way for some people to get to the hospital. But the roads are hard on vehicles... and this 14 year old truck is dying....  it was not made for these roads.

​

We also need on-going support for the Brigada office expenses.  Electricity is needed for the sewing and hair dressing programs.  And for many other activities that are held in the offiices. And the offices need WiFi so that the students can do their homework... and because there are no land-lines, that is also costly.

For instance you may wish to support:

​

-  Replacement of the truck;

-  Our Emergency Medical Fund;

-  Put your donation towards the replacement of the Brigada truck;

-  Supporting ongoing costs of growing plants from seed and developing home gardening for

   the brigada youth;

-  Supporting the ongoing costs of supplies used for First Aid (First Response);

-  Supporting our Spanish reading for fun program;

-  Supporting the music, knitting, jewelry, cooking and other programs

   to provide women new skills; 

-  Raising goats for food, goat milk and nutrition;

-  Ongoing projects that will give people in these areas, ways to make a living, with pride.
