Bon Voyage to Dimitri and Eric

Dimitri and Eric pose with their pathways construction team.  Both are taking TortugAir for Port-au-Prince this morning and then catching a flight back to the states.  We wish them safe travels and thank them for their dedication.  The pathways were Dimitri's Eagle Scout Project.  He raised all the necessary funds to make this project a reality, a beautiful gift for our children's village.

Children's Village Walkway

Dimitri Smith (right) is pictured with his friend, Eric, supervising the construction of walkways in the children's village.  Dimitri is a scout and this is his Eagle Project.  

The walkways will allow the children to get into and out of their homes without getting their feet wet and without bringing in loads of mud into their homes during the rainy seasons.  Dimitri was able to raise all the money to purchase the cement, gravel and sand needed for this project.  Great job, Dimitri.
