Volunteer life at
Bruce Peru
This month we made all the preparations to open our new
center in Cajamarca, Peru. We have the property, a team
of key volunteers, and in March will open our doors to
the street children of this mountain community. After
waiting for almost two years for promised properties to
be turned over to us, we finally bight the bullet and
rented our own property, right in the center of Cajamarca.
It has enough space for a street kids dining area, an
industrial kitchen, play rooms and class rooms enough
for our educational programs for street kids and more;
as well as ample sleeping facilities for ten resident
volunteers Georg, carpenter, teacher and key volunteer,
will soon be altering the interior to our needs, and Jean-Francois
and Joannie, will arrive to oversee the opening of our
program for street children in lovely mountain city of
Cajamarca, Peru.

The angels of February
James and his friends back in Europe came through for
the kids twice this month, once with a load of clothes,
toys, games, gifts and school materials, and the second
a large quantity of medicines of the types most needed
by our street children. Emma, arrived from England with
many pairs of children's shoes, then came Bob from the
USA with even more children's shoes (even with all of
this generosity, we never get enough shoes to satisfy
the need). Amanda arrived from Spain with a fashionable
and useful collection of children's clothes. Martina,
who wanted to paint a large mural on the back wall of
our little campus, not only designed it, recruited and
trained the children to do the fainting, but even raised
all the money to pay for both the mural and a garden to
go in front of it - come see how she accomplished this:

appeal was so successful, there is enough left over to
invite all the children for a day at a local swimming
pool. |
