Club Esperanza: Help during pandemic…

Posted on May 5, 2020 by Chachi

We have been faithfully serving the people God has put into our care during this time of worldwide crisis caused by the Corona Virus. It has been a blessing and a joy to be able to be a place of comfort, of prayer, of education, of nutrition, of God’s peace during this wild and crazy time. Club Cristiana La Esperanza is a lighthouse shining and giving hope in Barrio Los Martinez where we serve…Praise God for that.

Nicaragua has lagged behind the rest of the world but has recently had a spate of cases pop up. As schools are obligated to re-open this week, we need to take precautions for our teachers and staff. This crisis is not what we thought 2020 would bring…

Can you help us? These are unanticipated costs for our school year. But they are so necessary! Here are some of the things we could use your help with specifically related to the Corona Virus Pandemic….

Any amount that you can give will be a help!

A Three Month Supply of Protective Materials: This includes medical masks for our teachers, galons of hand sanitzer, galons of liquid alcohol and the dispensers to make that available for our 270 students and their families that pick them up and drop them off. Sheyla (our director) did some due diligence to price a three month supply…

…in total the supplies will costs $1,479

Protective Glass for Teachers’ Desks: Additionally Sheyla found a company that can construct plexi glass dividers for office desks. We have a lot of interaction with parent’s in the main office as well as in the classrooms. We would put one of these at each desk to allow for continued interaction and conversation with parent’s with a safe division. We need to install these in eight different classrooms and offices….

…total for 8 dividers is $1,120

We continue to serve…and we also want to be safe! Thank you for your prayers and support of all the great things happening at Club Esperanza! All of our teachers and staff are grateful for your help!!!
