Another exciting project was the making of sheets by the Learning Center women for the Velez Pais Hospital in Managua. Like the Fire Department items you will read below, Rosa Surber took part in the Learning Center Trek with one of the stops being the hospital where she identified the need for sheets and did something about it. She left the funds needed to buy the material in Nicaragua and the ladies took it from there. Thanks everyone for taking it from start to finish in a very short time! 
runs an animal rescue in Wisconsin responded to the need with some equipment that will be helpful for these situations. Part of the reason we include stops at the Fire Departments for our Wisconsin Volunteers, is to help them understand the way the departments operate in Nicaragua and also identify ways we can work together and help.
