“Give us a chance and see us perform.”
These words hung in a small overcrowded and ill equipped classroom for special needs students in Tanzania. They asked for a hand up! This is where our work began in 2005.
“The moment one definitely
commits oneself then Providence moves too.” -W.H. Murray
“Whatever you can do,
or dream you can, begin it.Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.”
-Goethe
"Everyone can be great because anyone
can serve. You don't need a college degree to serve. You don't need to know the second theory of thermodynamics in physics to serve. You only need a heart full of grace, a soul generated by love."-Rev. Martin Luther King

Peru
PERU
Our second and current project was building a resource and rehabilitation center in Chincha Baja, Peru. The Aug 2007 earthquake destroyed 58,000 homes in Peru and claimed more than 500 lives. This is the area where we chose to work. Children at "Centro Joaquin" are able to receive speech and physical/occupational therapy there.
