This summer, the area in northern Nicaragua around Ocotal is suffering from a drought. In the ten villages we serve, farmers have been watching their crops of beans and corn shrivel and die.
At our August clinic in La Ceiba, a generous donor provided lunch for the patients. Two hundred and seventy meals were served to women, children, and elders.
Nicaragua Projekt continues to provide more medicine than previously, administered by our health care providers, brigadistas.
Mid-August, the brigadistas attended their quarterly continuing education classes, presented by our doctor, Dr. Evertz Tercero.
Thanks to generous donors, during the July and August GlobalGiving fund-raising campaigns, we raised enough money to cover one-and-a-half months of costs for our health care program, close to $4,000.00!
