March 2005
Members and sponsor teachers of the International Friendship
Association at Delta Secondary travelled to Peru over the
spring break.
The group had a fabulous time visiting such diverse areas as
Lima, Arequipa, Paracas and Cusco. One of the highlights of
the trip was our volunteer work helping with school
maintenance work in the small villages of Urubamba and
Ollantaytambo.
We were happy to spend funds from our coffee fundraising
program on paint supplies and basic plumbing and electrical
improvements.
We also visited an orphanage for deaf children in Cusco and
donated funds to their program as well. After our volunteer
work we hiked the last day of the Inca trail and arrived at
Machu Picchu on a beautiful sunny afternoon.
Thanks again for your
assistance with the fundraising program.
