“We did home visits today. It was like stepping into National Geographic. At this time of year, they are in ceremonies when the boys become men. There are lots of celebrations going on in the community and the young men are dressed in their tribal garb, getting trained. It was stunning for all of us to meet a Samburu warrior and his “trainer” – dressed in full traditional wear with spear and hunting knife while out in the middle of nowhere.” – Stacy- November 2011
Meet Manacesi Lopez Garcia de Herrera, a 34-year-old resident of Rancho Viejo, Guatemala who recently shared her story with one of our team members.
She is the mother of three children – Kimberly, 17 years old, Ashly, 12 years old, and Dilmar, five years old. Her love for them serves as the driving force in her life. She recently became a member of 410 Bridge’s Savings Group Program along with other women in her community.
As the holiday season approaches, our hearts turn towards gratitude and the spirit of giving. One remarkable day that embodies this is Giving Tuesday, a global movement that encourages people to come together and support charitable organizations making a positive impact.
As we look back on this year, we are proud to remember how the community of Kiu, Kenya recently graduated from their partnership with 410 Bridge!
