Thanks to an important donation from our friend Fiona Graham and her colleagues in Brussels we have been able to carry out welcome improvements to the classrooms at the two preschools we help in marginal barrios on the western outskirts of Estelí. Here are some photos of the Estrellitas #2 preschool in Barrio Felipe y Mery Barreda showing some of the repainting and carpentry work the community have been able to carry out with the donation. The glass louvre windows were provided and installed by a local NGO called INSFOP which originally facilitated the preschool site in liaison with the local municipality and its mayor. Superemos provided the playground equipment. We are very grateful to everyone who has helped this preschool over the last five years. Both Estrellitas #2 and the SINAI preschool we support in Barrio Nuevo Amanecer continue to develop as a joint effort combining local resources and initiative with the indispensable support and solidarity of concerned foreign donors.
