Every summer the finca is blessed with "summer vols", these are volunteers who are still in undergrad who come and help us out for the summer. They cover our work while we take vacation, help us with special summer time projects, and generally just share their amazing energy and love with our kids. They arrived mid May and have been working hard ever since. On behalf of all the finca I would just like to say thank you to Annie (Notre Dame '13), Tiffany (Florida State '13), Rose (Notre Dame '13), and Emily (Bethel College '12) for helping out with: covering 1st through 9th grade, covering special ed, helping with maintenance, helping with the brigade construction projects, covering swim and soccer practice, covering our kids houses when our house parents need a quick break, cooking meals in the volunteer house, and helping to run our medical clinic among other things. Most importantly though, these four girls gave up part of their summers to come live in remote rural Honduras and share their amazing hearts with everyone here at the finca. Their quick popularity with the kids is only a small testament to all the work they are doing for us. I hope they enjoy the rest of their summer and know how grateful we are for them!
