Service Project To Help Poor Nicaragua Families

Fourth-graders at Foster Elementary School in the Mt. Lebanon School District recently listened to a presentation about Project Chacocente, a charity that helps folks in Nicaragua who are homeless and living in the Managua City Dump.

Omar Hernandez, who is from Nicaragua, is international relations director with Project Chacocente and he spoke to students about the organization.

The presentation Dec. 17 at Foster Elementary was a kick-off of the fourth-graders' service project for the school year. All fourth graders in the district will participate in the service project. The students have started making "worry dolls," which they will sell for 50 cents each. The money they earn from the sale of the dolls will go toward Project Chacocente, mainly to purchase books and shelving for the library in Nicaragua that the project helped to build.
