Expansion in 2011

Buenas notcias everyone!

In 2011 we will be adding 3 new staff members to our team in Peru, and we’ll be sending some excellent volunteers down to the center to work with the kids and collaborate with our Peruvian staff. In February we will work on infusing the arts into our programming, adding more room for kids to be creative and express themselves through different mediums. We will be incorporating music and dance into the program to supplement the literacy intervention and homework help that is already going on.

This year, we are participating in a recycling program through Planet Green Recycle. Save your ink cartridges and old cell phone! We will be collecting them. When we mail in those items, and Corazon de Dahlia will raise money. If you know of an office or school that would like a collection box and flyers about the program, contact us, and we will get you what you need.

Our Amazon Wish List has been a huge success! We have received many generous donations of books, school supplies, and educational materials. Thank you to all of those who have contributed. There are still many items on the list that have not yet been purchased.

Check back soon for more updates about the great work that we are doing in Peru!

Thanks!
Dahlia
