Invitation To Give Presentation of My Project at Austin Regional Clinic at Medical Park Tower- OB/GYN Office

On May 12, 2014 I was invited by Mrs. Harrison from Austin Regional Clinic to share my project with the OB/GYN doctors.

I truly appreciate the opportunity to share my project at the Austin Regional Clinic at Medical Park Tower- OB/GYN Office. It is nice to know that through my words others can be inspired to take action and help. Whenever I present my project, I draw inspiration by imagining the girls that will be benefited from my efforts, standing behind me. The more people that are informed of their needs, the more girls will stand behind me. They may not know who assisted in changing their lives in a positive way, yet will know that someone cared enough to help; that they are not alone.

Madre María – Centro de Formación para Madres Adolescentes: Donating a Sewing Machine

After my worshops across Beni, I returned to Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Santa Cruz, Bolivia for a second workshop at "Madre María" – Centro de Formación para Madres Adolescentes (Center for Homeless Teen Mothers). At the previous workshop, I encountered the need to donate a sewing machine for this center, so that the girls may continue making washable pads for the center and other rural communities in need within Santa Cruz. With Hermana (Sister) Cristina donating the sewing machine for the center. At this workshop, there was a nun from the Hogar San Lorenzo Orfanato ( Orphanage) in Santa Cruz. She humbly requested a sewing machine for her orphanage.

Comunidad Villa Cruz – Primaria

After driving an hour away from Trinidad, I arrived at a primary school and held a workshop with mothers, teachers and students. Everyone left with pad templates and learned the skills of how to make a complete washable sanitary pads. The teacher for this schoolhouse came all the way from the neighboring town - where she lives - to welcome her students at the workshop during her school winter break.

During my last workshop - with the university students - dancers from the university's performing arts, by request of SEDUCA, performed an Acto Civico (traditional dance in my honor).
