I´m finally making new friends in my region! I feel like each time I´ve made a friend nearby they´ve left suddenly. Am I cursed? Anyways, I was out helping my closest neighbor (was my second-closest until my first-closest left...) with painting a world map in the school. ...

(my friend and a community helper painting the map...pretty nice right?)

...and learned he´s also looking to renovate the town park, but only has 4 months left and is still waiting on funding. This is the type of project where the community puts up about half the funding and then Peace Corps puts a description of the project on their website and anyone can donate funds. I know economic times are tight for most of my readership, but consider donating to this project, I´ve seen the community and I think it´s a worthy donation (plus I don´t forsee myself requesting monetary donations for my community, so if you want an easy way to help out a Panama volunteer, don´t hesitate!). And if the community in Panama managed to come up with 47 percent...consider why the rest of the world can´t manage to get the other 53% donated. There are plenty of projects worldwide you can donate to in this way, but here´s the website for my friend´s project.

The community members are fairly well organized and they have a self-proclaimed group of ¨nature lovers¨who volunteer with the National Authority for the Environment, making the community a more eco-friendly place. So, I think they´re deserving of a park beautification project.

Thanks for your support!
