Saying goodbye to El Salvador but not to the project...
My last few weeks in El Salvador were difficult as I had to return to Canada earlier than expected due to unforeseen circumstances. After some tearful goodbyes, visits to families' homes, a bag full of letters and cards from the children and final visits to the schools for an ice cream goodbye celebration, our family flew back to Canada.
Today, Modesto and the teachers and directors continue to visit the schools on a bi-weekly basis and I maintain communication with then to see how it is going. I will be doing some fundraising to purchase more books from Vernon, BC (our new home) and hope to work toward a twin city program for the municipality of Yucuaiquín, La Union.
Here are some pictures of our final weeks! I will keep you posted on our fundraising event.
