Dear friends -

The Project in Pasourku is still ongoing. Luiz is providing constant and sustainable support to the village - not only through his skills as an architect - but mostly by helping them to create income through harvesting and selling cacao beans that grow wild in the rain forest around Pasourku.

Here is LUIZ's Report for a year ago:

"We already bought roof, nails, and one 500 lts water tank. It took more effort than I expect and we needed 17 people (8 women) and it was AMAZING to look them climbing after crossing that river with the Water tank over their head.....
When I got there I realized not a little from original remain on step so next day we cut a big old tree in the jungle and made all timber for structure and stand up everything in that single day, at the end of the day many women and children come to watch the almost finish cover roof.....it inspired me a lot and touch my heart. The next day they made an small festival with school children singing......many tears from me and from their mothers, very special moment.
(...)
These kind of moments makes me feel that our effort and work has sense, we are contributing to make better days to those families and education is invaluable....... thanks my friend for your kind words, support and inspiration."

We will add pictures as Luiz sends them to us.
