In April 2008, Anna led a group of 11 students to San Jose del Cabo on a humanatarian trip. We spend the year fundraising, learning Spanish, studying pre-columbian Hispanic culture, Mexican history, geography, and art. While in the Bajo area, we worked with Amigos de los Ninos, an organization that serves vulnerable children and families in that area. We helped build a shade structure at a handicap school,and brought much needed supplies to the teachers. We worked with a young paralized woman, helping her build a used clothing business so she can support herself. We also painted a huge mural in her room at her request. It was an amazing trip for the students and we were priveledged to be able to help.
For a few of our students it was their first time on a plane and first time away from home. The students were amazing, they worked hard, supported one another, and were a joy to be with.
