Here are a few images of the work we’ve been doing this year in San Ramón. Thank you to all of you who helped make dreams come true for the people of this wonderful corner of Nicaragua – either through donations, going on an ecotour, or purchasing crafts or coffee. A very happy holiday season from all of your brothers and sisters in San Ramón!
