Would you like to make a tax deductible donation to my future projects?

Hello Fellow Blog Readers:

To those of you who are interested, I will be setting up an account that will allow you to make tax deductible donations to the projects I will be working on my second year. I will be spending my first year working on education. Then in my second year, I will determine families that are in need of a project in order for them to better their health. Projects could include, an improved cook stove, latrine, cement floor, water storage system, or drainage system. Criteria for recipients of projects will also be based on families dedication to the educational health talks that I will be giving and how great their desire is to better their health. More details to come concerning cost break down as it becomes available.

I am giving you a heads up so that you can start putting money away for this now if you so desire, maybe you have something you can give up and instead of spending the money you can send it towards a good cause. I will be setting up a fund when the time gets closer to begin my projects.

These are a few of my favorite things

My favorite things in Guatemala so far (as in I hope the list grows over the next two years):

-Fresh tomatoes-they always have that summertime taste of fresh picked tomatoes

-Fresh, sweet pineapple-always so expensive in the states and never quite that sweet

-Hospitality of Guatemalans-I have been offered so many food items and beverages by those that have a lot less than I do. They are also great about opening up their houses to foreigners

-The amazing scenery- God's hand was definitely in it all, it's breath-taking

-Pop or soda is called agua (spanish for water)-makes me feel like what I am drinking isn't that bad for me

-the colorful traditional dress of the Guatemalan women (pictures to come)

I have posted more pictures and you can find them here: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2414575&id=22423429&l=c9baad8481
