Back in Arequipa

I'm back in Arequipa. It's been a busy couple of days. The Team Perú volunteers finished the home addition project and have been working on a chapel for Father Alex. Most of the team will be leaving for their excursion trips to Cusco, Machu Pichu and the jungle over the next day - but a few hearty souls remain. 

The remaining volunteers will be joining the HBI staff as we facilitate a number of our ongoing projects. Over the next three days we will be:

• Continuing the work on a Center of Excellence project with the leadership team at the INABIF CAR San Luis Gonzaga orphanage in Arequipa
• Meeting with the faculty for Universidad Cathólica de Santa Maria to continue our discussion of a collaborative service learning project and formal MOA
• Signing a formal agreement with the First Responder training with the Peruvian Firefighters Association
• Christening the new tuberculosis treatment room at the the clinic in Alto Cayma

Stay tuned for more updates.
