Helping
People Globally . . .
You
know that old saying, "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a
day, but teach a man to fish and you feed him for life"?
Well, The Bridge does both. The Bridge is a non-profit organization
that helps impoverished indigenous people in Costa Rica. Last year they
enabled 24 kids to go to school; provided food for many, both through
donations and a food-for-work program; provided medicine; and helped
adults move toward self-sufficiency with micro-loans and occupational
development and training. Click elpuente-thebridge.org
to learn more about helping our friends in Costa Rica. A little bit of
money can really make a difference: Just $10 buys a bag of food to help a
family of 4, and $100 enables a child to start school.
