A note of reality from Sr Peggy in El Salvador

felicidades..Don you reached your goal.....we just had days and nights of rain and have been on red alert for days. ...the provisional bridges put in after IDA were all washed away with houses like yours there, just gone...houses and everything in them have been swept away by the swollen rivers. Seems like we can never recover.....Mud slides have taken lives and to date there are almost 8,000 people evacuated...some permanently others like here in the center sleeping on mattresses for reasons of prevention. We are just so vulnerable.

What a great thing that your goal was met and many now know more about el salvador. Give our thanks to all who have been part of this campaign...our students are deeply grateful. blessings and love, peggy
