Summer camp

We recycle everything! About 12 years ago Por Los Ninos built a little school in what was then rural Playa Blanca, not so rural now.

The school is not used anymore and we just authorized a change of use to the landowners and it is now the new home of Amigos de Animales Education Center.

Sunday night they advertised their summer camp, Monday 30 kids were signed up! No child will be turned away, the camp will run until school starts Monday to Friday, 4 hours per day. The kids are excited, they don’t have to play in the streets for entertainment!

They received a grant to run the camp but it is limited – if you would like to sponsor a child the cost is US$35.00. You can donate directly to www.AmigosdeAnimales or www.Porlosninos.com

And this is what keeps us doing what we do!

I want to comment that a month ago I started my clinical practice in the health center Coacoyul and I feel very happy because in the wake of this year and these practicums I’m learning a lot. For all this, I thank you, because I know you are doing so much. … always, always be grateful to you because I know no one else would help as many people you are doing.

You are a great person and have great value to humanity, and above all a great heart. I’m looking forward to whatever comes next. I believe this is what inspires me to keep going, I do not give up so easy, thank you and my sponsors that I am where I am.

This month I have been in the health center and have learned to measure, weigh, take vital signs, do injections, to vaccinate infants and children, to perform cures, to make Pap tests, order and document, HIV testing and Syphilis, glucose uptake, etc. I am very happy with the result yet I know that I still have much more to learn.

Raffle to help a student

Raffle to help a student

We have a young dentist about to graduate with 98% as her final mark. She has scraped through school but now has to pay for her papers if she wants to practice. Sadly we have come across this situation many times but we have a solution. I have donated a painting which we are raffling off to pay for her “title” as it is called in Mexico. it seems to cost just about as much to get out of university here as it does to get through.

Tickets are $10 USD each, we started selling two days ago and there are only 29 left of the 100 tickets. A photo of the painting is attached. You can pay via this website by clicking here and I will send you the ticket number.
