We have new volunteers !!!

We have managed to do a lots of things in our Cusco centre. We have new teachers, books in the schools, lots of clothing and presents from donations and we have been quite successful in fundraising. The only things we felt we were not successful in was attracting new volunteers. The first thing we did when we arrived here is we designed little fliers. We did not play on emotions and honestly we failed miserably. Then we found fliers from previous campaign "Don't feel sorry for street children" that was supposedly much more successful - and we restarted it some time ago. Even though we met with some criticism that it is playing too much on emotions.

Today all in all it paid back. We will have at least two volunteer girls from Ireland for a week, and perhaps two longer staying Danish girls. All of them in addition to a Canadian couple that has just started today (and the three of us - me, Rita and our Belgian volunteer). So we will be at least seven starting tomorrow and running like that for some weeks!!!

All great!! We have also been today to the doctor with our girl who had an infected toe and she is doing better. Not great but ok...
