June had us running like drunk monkeys…
Ecuador - Incredible distribution with a diminished team (9 hearty souls - small but powerful)!
Irapuato - History in the making - first ever distribution joining the efforts of ALEM and World Access Project (both organizations fielding disabled wheelchair mechanics in a seating clinic that offers a glimpse of the future in partnership with Rotary in Mexico).
OK FOLKS - BUCKLE UP WERE HITTING THE BOOSTERS AND ENGAGING THE WARP DRIVE - HERE ARE THE NEXT TWO (AND ONLY TWO) PROJECTS SCHEDULED IN 2024
Cancun - September 5th through 13th
Our first ever project in the resort city of Cancun. Our Rotary partners in this district are known for maniacal hospitality - already putting together an itinerary of fun and frolic (following the distribution of course) that will become the stuff of legend. Jump on the volunteer boat and get your name on the list today (this one will fill up fast)!
Extend your trip? Another history making offering from Hope Haven West… Hey, you’re in Cancun - easy to tack on adventures; diving, Belize, fishing/snorkeling, resorts, beaches - sky’s the limit…
Or - hang with Uncle Lonny for a quick trip to Orizaba (state of Veracruz) where the Hope Haven West team will be holing up at the Gama Hotel (nice place) in this quaint little berg where we plan to spend two days organizing, assembling and staging wheelchairs for future Mexico projects.
Philippines - October 13th through 24th
Another first for Hope Haven West. Partnering with Fenixia Foundation, Rotary and a cast of thousands - Hope Haven West descends on three islands within the span of a whirlwind week - providing 200 wheelchairs and mobility equipment - exuding effervescent joy and forging friendships that undoubtedly will result in many additional opportunities to assist the disabled poor in these exotic islands. Islands and cities include, Mindanao, Bacolod, Davao, Manti - and of course, flights route through Manila.
Extensions anyone? (after all - you've come a long way, baby) Options include; resorts, island hopping, beautiful beaches, diving, ridiculous seafood and San Miguel Beer! We have world class agents and planners to assist with arrangements for those wishing to avail themselves of the amenities of this tropical paradise.
Tickets are now being purchased for both of these travel/adventure opportunities with Hope Haven West. These will be the final two projects for 2024. We would love to have you join our happy band of Merry Pranksters… No experience necessary, job for everyone, hook up with a veteran or seating specialist and love on some kids to whom you will provide the life changing gift of mobility.
Hope Haven West is a 501(C)3 Non-Profit, tax deductible organization (100% Charity - no salaries, administrative fees or fund raising expenses). Save your receipts for your flight and hotel and write off your expenses.
Finally, I would be remiss not to once again thank all of those assisting with our sponsor program (allowing students and seating specialists who cannot afford the expense of travel opportunity to participate in HHW projects)! Your generosity allows for the inclusion of many (like the volunteers from ALEM and World Access Mission) to contribute their expertise and talent to these projects.
Waging Heavy Peace,
Uncle Lonny
