I am writing to thank the generous Friends of Ecuador donors who believed in our work with children’s nutrition enough to contribute quickly enough to make this breakfast program happen when school opens in September in at least two of the area schools.
You have raised $1,500 which is now in the Mushuk Yuyay savings and loan cooperative where it will be immediately available for use.
While this is wonderful news and nutritious food will be available quickly, this is only the beginning. Other schools in the 3 cantons where Mushuk Yuyay operates – Cañar, El Tambo, Suscal – have asked to participate as well. As other funds become available either from local governments or from further Friends of Ecuador donations, more schools will be added and more children fed.
The program is growing faster than anticipated.
Please contact me Through the link to Alan on the post above if you have any questions.
In deepest gratitude,
Alan Adams
