Kyna's visit August 2014

Once again, Kyna, Joey's therapist, was here for one week last month, doing assessment's, training old and new teachers that will be working not only with Joey, but also other students at NUNA Academy with some learning disabilities, and or behavioral issues, and some basic training for the new teachers that have never received training from Kyna before.  

Kyna also had a private meeting with a concerned mom, and grandmother about their 2 year old baby boy, but thankfully they left feeling happy because he's perfectly fine, and progressing just as he should be. :)

Probably the most fun, and exciting time Kyna had was going to Cattleya Roatan, a therapy center here on the Island for children with special needs, and learning disabilities.   I say this was her best time because she loves challenges, and working with pretty difficult kids, and she had a particular student that likes to bite, and guess what Kyna got bit, but was so happy to come home and share the story of how it happened.  That's a good day for her, LOL!  Ouch.  She knew she made progress that day, and although the staff there was not super happy about what happened, and felt bad for that Kyna was bitten, Kyna explained that she is very used to that happening, and was totally ok with it, and that it's a successful day when that happens.  Lets just say she LOVES her job!! :)  God bless you Kyna for doing what you do, your amazing! 

We are already looking forward to Kyna's next visit. There's always a need here for special training and help that Kyna provides.  We are very appreciative and grateful for the help that we receive when she is here.

Thank you, and blessings to all!

Back Pack Program

Children at SRCS

ER International 2014 Backpack Feeding Program, Island of Roatan, Honduras

Pleasantly surprised and a believer…

School is starting at SRCS and ER International will be providing 34 students a backpack that they will fill weekly with food.  I thought the Backpack Feeding Program was a positive gesture toward improving children’s nutrition and learning, but had no idea of the real impact the program was having on “teaching a child to fish”.  What I learned during a conversation with ER International surprised and converted me into a believer of the true gift Ernie and Robyn were delivering to this Honduras island community.

Q:  Why not just feed the children at school?

ERI:  We do feed children one hot school lunch a week, more when we have the resources.  But the reality is the backpacks keep children in school. 

Q: What do you mean the backpacks keep children in school?

ERI:  What you need to understand is, once a child learns basic reading and writing, parents usually take their child out of school to pedal trinkets to tourists on the beach.  The money a child earns is often needed to keep enough food on the table.  Parents of a child provided an ER International backpack knows it will be filled ever Monday with enough food to feed their family for the week, if their child stays in school.

The light went on.  The ER International Backpack Feeding Program is not only improving childrens nutrition and keeping their families fed but keeping children in school.  It looks like the SRCS students accompanied by their ER International backpacks will be learning fishing skills far into the future.
