February 24th update....the new textbooks and workbooks have been ordered but as with most places in the world at the moment, Honduras is apparently experiencing delays in the supply chain!  There are some "screenshots" on the "Photos Albums" page on this website of some of the books that have been ordered....we are hopeful that the books will arrive soon :)  As soon as there is a further update available it will be posted here!


Donations to the "new curriculum materials and classroom supplies" fund for the school in Retiro are continuing to arrive and the donation total is now almost $9000(CAN$).  During the FOH AGM meeting on January 30th a motion was passed to send $6000(US$)....which converted to just over $8000(CAN$)....to Honduras.  The new textbooks, workbooks and other classroom supplies have been ordered and should be available to the teachers & students when school commences in a few days!  Thanks so much to all of the folks who have donated to this project....the students and teachers are very excited and happy to have the new learning materials!  We are hoping to have photos very soon of the new materials being distributed to the students & teachers....stay tuned for further updates!
