The aim of this project is to raise money to purchase school supplies for the Escuela Himmelman, a primary school in Cayambe, Ecuador.

I spent three months in Cayambe last summer, teaching English at the Himmelman school. The school itself is in poor repair, and the students learn in an odd environment-- occasional pieces of equipment are new, but almost all of what they have access to is old and broken. Classes are large (about 45), and the teachers do the best they can. It's a place where small gifts could make a big difference.

I'm running this project in consultation with the Ecuadorian charity Fundacion Reto Internacional. Fernanda, my contact at FRI, was my supervisor in my volunteer placement last summer. She's bilingual and very competent. Through her I was able to inquire what school supplies the school needed most. She asked the principal for me-- in his opinion, the students would profit the most from the purchase of whiteboards, markers, and maps.

With any project of this kind its very important to protect the investment. Thats why no money will be delivered to the school as cash-- it's asking too much of people who earn five thousand in a year to put a thousand dollars into their hands directly. Instead, either I will return to Ecuador to supervise the purchases (don't worry, I'll pay my own way!) or FRI will take on that part of the project.

Thanks so much for your support.
