And you thought YOUR computer was old!

CdA founder, Pat McCully, recently returned from a trip to Jinotega.  She took the photos below.  The computers we were using for community computer classes are so old, they won't work any longer.  Needless to say, computer certification classes have stopped, but we're hopeful that sponsors will have a solution.  Do you, or someone you know, have an old computer you'd like to donate to CdA?  For transportation purposes, laptops are the best.  We're looking for computers that are just a few years old and in working order.  If you can help, please email Liz at treasurer@camigas.org.

Yes, you are looking at disk drives.  Haven't seen those in years!

Old computers.

Heart and Hands: Hands On Community Service Day

CdA is grateful for such wonderful friends! Today, the volunteers at Heart and Hands in Newport Beach, California helped us cut plastic bags to send to Jinotega. These bags are used by Nicaraguan women to create the beautiful handbags that we sell at various events.  Photos below.

CdA Founder, Pat McCully, hard at work!

The Ayudate Project

Thank you, Roy McCord, for all your work to get this movie made, edited, and online!

A Relaxing Afternoon

CdA had a successful gathering at the home of dedicated sponsors Roy McCord and Nora Pedersen.  A little food, a bit of discussion, and the debut of Roy's new film, The Ayudate Project.  It was a great afternoon and we were happy to see some familiar faces, and meet some new.  Thank you, everyone!  Photos below.
