Children

Our efforts at community development have focused on several areas: housing, health, economic, educational, etc. All have had some impact on the whole community, but we are realizing that we can have the biggest impact through the children, and so a lot of our work focuses on them. As is true everywhere, children learn the fastest, and are more open to change than adults, and will carry those changes into the future with them. We are working on their English, but also trying to teach them new health habits, related to hygiene, footwear, etc.
