I am a new old member who has not posted for some time...my share is not about me or myself but about the country I live in El Salvador and the people that I work for as a trusted servant...the only difference between them and I is that I have had more opportunties to travel and learn things like languages in my life. Punto. Saludos.

WELCOME TO ALL OUR

 NEW MEMBERS

FOR JOINING US!

Hello all, 

My goodness, so many new members.  Many thanks to Colleen and June for inviting your wonderful friends!

This group very much looks after itself due to the dedicated threads and index.  However, if you find a thread getting too long, or are having trouble navigating, send me a personal message and I'll do my best to accomodate.

I have health problems which prevent me from being totally on top of things all the time, so please forgive me if I sometimes lag in response times.

Keep up the good work everyone.  There is so much we each can do to bring more light and hope to this sometimes weary world.

cheers & hugs, Ruth

We are constructing an 800 acre Non-Profit Eco Lodge just North of Managua. The lodge has a River and Lake front with views of the mountains past the valley. Horse back riding and hiking trails are being developed through the property. Each trail is “themed” with History or Natural information. One main lodge building and 12 smaller bungalows that are of open design. Each with it’s own fruit trees and private surroundings. The Lodge is of an Eco mind set, using environmental philosophy. All inclusive with Food, Beverages, Tours and Fishing. The trails and land area are being redeveloped to support local wild life. Each of those with camping shelters with grills etc… There will be no Hunting except with a Camera however, we will offer fishing in the River and Lake. Monkeys, Fish, and over 250 types of Bird are in this area.

Profits of this project will go to helping support three public schools in the area. At a later date construction of 80 low income homes will also take place. Our charity (CINDURMA) is registered with the Nicaragua Government in Managua. Copy of my certification is posted in the “Files” area. If you are not interested in donating to this project please look at some others in the Country - there are many !

If you or your group are interested in working with this project please feel free to contact me (Glenn Seavers in USA glenn_seavers@yahoo.com) for more information and free DVD. We need: Workers to come build, people interested in developing the area schools, Financial contributions.

Thank you and come have some fun !!

IF YOU GET A 'POST DELETED' MESSAGE DON'T PANIC

I'm reorganizing our posts by subject.  This will make it easier to find the actions you're interested in acting on.  It will also help posters to know where to put their action.

Volume of actions taken should go up as a result, which is a great thing.

As of early am Aug 2, 2005 we reached 100 members

Congratulations on all of our efforts to grow the group and increase our team efforts towards global healing!

Watch out 200, this team is stoked!

    to all of you who have made posts, signed petitions, taken action on an issue, or invited others into the group.  Let's keep working and growing together.  Let's make this TEAM an action dynamo on Care2!!!

Luv ya all, Ruth

 [ send green star]

Hi everyone.

If its not too late...  (only just noticed this link) I would like to introduce myself.  I am Lorraine, and I`m a Brit, living in U.K.

I am extremely anti-war, and have no wish to add either Bush or Blair to my list of friends, LOL.

I am a Christian, but I dont go over-board, and I respect everyone else`s beliefs.   I guess I do believe that we may be living in "the end days" looking round at how bad our world is getting at the moment, plus what scientists are telling us about the sorry state of the earth.

I love all animals, and my particular favourites are dolphins & tigers.  It upsets me greatly to see so many injustices against our animal friends.

I dislike Bush for his stubborn & selfish attitude in refusing to sign the Kyoto Agreement, and although I do not condone Blair regards the war in Iraq (and some other issues like I.D.cards) I do respect him for at least trying to do what is right regards Global Warming.

I already host 2 groups online. One here on Care2 regards the London bombings, and one on Yahoo regards the proposed Brit I.D.cards.

If I dont always post very much, please understand this is only because of other committments. I moved in May, and being unable to get my child into the school I wanted, I now face home-schooling him - which is going to be time consuming.   In fact it wasnt really my intention to join any groups (and I UN-joined several last week because of lack of time)  However, Ive exchanged various messages with Ruth, and she seems such a nice lady, so I guess we folks must stick together on both sides of the pond, and try and bring some justice back into this world.

Blessings.

Lorraine

"Central America from Guatemala through Costa Rica is enriched with Spanish Language study/home stay and Humanitarian Aid/Volunteer programs from Doctors and Dentists to those who are able to paint and nail two boards together, we are able to suggest perhaps the right program to suit your needs.

If you are an adventure traveler, we are able to connect you to responsible alternative tour operators and unique lodging places, where you'll feel more at home than at home!!! Qualified native drivers and guides to get you were you're going safely while proudly showing you personally the eco, ethno and cultural wonders of either Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua or Costa Rica or two, three, four or all five nations if you have the time and inclination.

Contact me anytime of the year and please in advance of planning  your departure and itinerary.

We are unable to plan low budget second and third class bus (known locally as "chicken buses") trips..best obtain a good guidebook, nor unfortunately, since our native operators rely on tourism and provide land services to travellers as a living, we are unable to escort around low budget pleasure travelers "

Neither are we able to promise “room and board” to the prospective volunteer, this shall be a matter beween the prospect and the host institutions or NGOs in each and every country. "

 I am a person who has had to overcome and deal with disabilities in my life but was fortunate enough to have asked for and received help...those who know everything (therefore those who have nothing to learn) need not apply to be in my space...all others welcome, from backpacker to eccentric billionare...

I live in the tropics..The mystical Mayan World..formerly a guide-interpreter now a wizard of "oz" view: http://www.worldsrevealed.com/viewdetail/19/Americas/El_Salvador/
