Subject : Back in Honduras
Good morning HHK supporters,
I am back in Honduras after a month's vacation in California and Nevada. It was great to visit family, including my 91-yr-old mom and 3 of my 4 grandchildren. Two of my grandkids, Lucas and Jenna,are in the 1st photo (I just had to throw this in). Jenna has a younger brother, Ethan, and a 4th grandson is 16-yr-old Philip, born in Honduras and adopted by my son and his wife, who live in New York.
Two of our volunteers, Carrie and Kevin, who helped us for several months at the Hogar (orphanage) left us recently. This photo is from Kevin's going away party. 
We also have 4 new volunteers, Tara (Canada), Caroline (England), Veronika (Slovakia) and Amalia (France & U.S.), so we have quite an international group. We are very grateful to all of our volunteers for their tremendous help with our childrens programs.
On Saturday, we took all the children from the Hogar to swim at Helen's Restaurant on the beach. They enjoyed the pools, the ocean and the hamburgers and french fries. We were there for most of the day.
It has been quite some time since the children have had an outing, as I was out of the country.
We have sent each of you information on our party at the Quinta Real to celebrate the Grand Opening of the Hogar de Amor. This is scheduled for Sept. 22-23 here in La Ceiba. We hope that at least some of you can attend. Please let us know if you are able to make it. Check back often at our website for news and to make donations via PayPal and your credit card.
We wish to thank each of you for your generous support of our programs and our children.
Thanks for caring,
Dave
