Remember those 24 micro-grants that YOU helped make possible by supporting Porches for Progress? Well, they are underway and already making a positive impact in Nueva Guinea, Nicaragua. We are excited to highlight some of the progress!
We can't say it enough...the community has amazing ideas for improving their own community. Porches for Progress is the spark that helps their ideas become a reality, and we are amazed at ALL of the projects.
Thank you for following along this journey with Porches for Progress. We couldn't do it without our supporters, like you!
Iglesia Capilla el Calvario (Calvary Chapel Church)
Church leaders used their micro-grant to purchase books, craft supplies, and chairs for the children.
They started a new Sunday school, which over 100 children now attend every week!
Rigoberto Cabeza School (Escuela Rigoberto Cabeza)
The school used their micro-grant to repair the roof of the school, paint, and replace 10 desks.
The repaired roof will keep the students and teachers dry from the frequent rains.
Policia Nacional Softball Team
This softball team used their micro-grant to purchase new jerseys...don't they look great?!
Playing with pride, building team spirit, and building their community!
