One desire and vision of ours on Ometepe is to help equip and train up young kids and adults with some basic skills improving their chances of a better life for them and their loved ones.There is so much poverty on Ometepe so we want to try our best to be a source of help and hope to our community, mainly through our school. This is the first of 3 planned classrooms where we one day soon hope to offer free classes in computers, English language, sewing and other skills in the Arts.
We will keep you updated on the progress of these classrooms.
Thank you for helping us make this dream come true!
Tom and Esther
