Salitron School

School Renovations Completed in Salitron Village

This was one of the neediest schools in the area. The floor had giant crevices, the roof was caving in, the windows were a mess and it also needed a blackboard, teaching materials and a bright paint job.

The teacher is an amazing man. He grew up in one of the villages and only completed third grade. At age 20, he went back to 4th grade, studied from then on and became a teacher. He is very involved in helping to establish a natural medicine clinic here in Copan.

Project School Supplies iworked with the NGO Hermanos in Hope to give the children in this village a safe and healthy learning environment.

In partnership with Hermanos in Hope, the final touches of the renovations to the school in Saliltron village were completed in December 2009.

Everything both inside and out was repaired and spruced up, including new windows and a repaired floor.

Here we are painting furniture with the very involved and enthusiastic kids!

Thank you so much to everyone for your help with this project. It would be a pretty bleak school without you!
