We are so proud that the first teacher has signed on despite not having a school building!  Our luggage was full of educational toys on our last trip to help get her started.

We presented the men with battery operated tools.  Their first task was to complete a desk that a child in a wheelchair could sit at comfortably.  They did a great job and are anxiously waiting to build more desks.
