There is a lot of trash in the rural communities and around. The people here do not have an ecological awareness and throw their waste in the nature. We instructed our children to bring plastic bottles to the school with the final objection to recycle them. After 2 weeks we collected about 2500 plastic bottles, which is a great success. In exchange for each bottle they receive a small chocolate candy.
From El Portillo the plastic bottles are brought to the community “Las Mangas”.
In Las Mangas lives a handicapped man whose name is Joel. He will clean the bottles and remove the lids. Finally they are carried to a recycling company in La Ceiba.

Around the "Escuela republica de Francia" there is a lot of work done right now. Don Tascho, the carpenter repairs windows, tables, chairs and boards. He paints a small part of the school, trims wood to fit, installs a white board, and a water system with drip rails. Up to now, every morning two or three children had to bring waterbottles of 20 Liters up to school. In the near future we can change it with the help of this watersystem.

The new school year has started and all of the children are very excited!Especially the little Mario (left bottom corner). All of the 18 children will receive classes in the same room, beacuse there will be only one teacher and one volunteer this year. Furthermore we have built a nice new raft, because the old one was taken away by the river.
