If
you are interested in staying at RBR to do volunteer work in the area,
please click on the following for more information on our Program:
RBR is spearheading a Mother-Child Outreach Project to help local mothers
care for
their families.
While
many Mechapans make a good living selling lobster and fish to the cities,
there are many families who are not as fortunate due to circumstances beyond
their control. Our very good friend, Reina, has six children under the
age of 16, who she cares for herself because her husband moved to
Her youngest son is frequently ill and requires frequent medical care.
Each
Care Package will be distributed intact to a Mechapan Family. Your attention
is dearly needed, as most mothers have several young children to care for
and do not have the means to go the 90 km to Chinandega to purchase these
necessary items. In addition, we are interested in organizing Family
Care Seminars, which we would like to hold every three months.
Please contact us for more information or offer assistance in development.
