CHILDREN WITH HIV/AIDS GET A CHANCE AT AN EDUCATION - In March 2011 it was brought to our attention that children in Somotillo were not going because their parents had either died of AIDS or they currently have AIDS and can not work. No work means no income, no income means no school uniforms. 41 children were blessed in March 2011 to receive new uniforms and an ice cream party to celebrate their blessings. Check out their photos here.

DARLING'S NEW HOUSE - in 2007 I met one of the pooriest families that I have ever come across.

Through many fundraising methods and help from others I am excited to show you her new house. Click here to see the old house and the new one..

OPERATION EDUCATION - Only 35% of the children in Nicaragua get to go to school. Out of those 35% most only get to go to the 4th grade all because they can't afford a school uniform. 127 kids will be attending school for the 2011 school year. Read More

Card Making Project - In July 07 I met one of the nicest communities I had ever met. They were so happy to be visited by us and really wanted our help to get them employement. After returning to the US God gave me a great idea of a way they could easily make some additional money.

That's where the card project was birthed. I took supplies to them and they drew pictures on them and we made them into greeting cards. I returned, sold them and each family raised about $78 for drawing 80 cards. The pictures were great and the project was a success. The money raised was as much as a years salary for most of the families. Check out the pictures here.

Sports Ministry - being a ball player for most of my life I have a love for sports and being in Nicaragua and seeing youth play with broken bats, busted balls and no nets just kills me. In 07 I was blessed to give equipment to a soccer team and a baseball team through the donations of friends, businessmen and other organizations.

Each team received new uniforms, balls, and all the equipment needed to play the game they love.
