the project lives on

October 27, 2007 by Erin

My project in Honduras lives on. The nutrition program at the Albergue is now being run by a health Peace Corps volunteer in La Esperanza. And donations can now be accepted through an official non-profit (with a tax ID number and everything). Donations will help to bring education and nutritious foods to women from rural areas waiting to deliver their babies at the hospital. If you or your company are thinking of making holiday or end-of-year donations, please keep this project in mind.
Here is a formal description of my project: http://waterandsanitationhealth.com/infantmortality.html
Here is the information on how to donate: http://waterandsanitationhealth.com/gpage2.html
You can donate through paypal online or by mailing in a check to the address on the page. Three percent of the paypal donation is automatically deducted to allow for the online transaction, whereas 100 percent of your check will get to the people who are running the project in La Esperanza. The non-profit is administered in cooperation with the peace corps, and no administration costs will be taken out of your donation. Please specify this project when making your donation so that it will be used specifically for the nutrition program at the Albergue. Mark your check or paypal donation “infant mortality project in La Esperanza.”
If you or your company are looking to make even more substantial donations, please browse through the rest of the Water and Sanitation Health (WASH) web site. They have terrific projects all over the country. And I can tell you honestly from experience that ALL of the donation will be used towards the projects. Not a single employee is paid anything from the donations, because there aren’t any employees, only volunteers.
