Helping Nicaragua

Our friends, Sarah and Baldo, are creating a non-profit, here in Nicaragua called CORE Nicaragua (COordinating RElationships in Nicaragua).
The principal purpose of the organization is to set up trips – clinics, home-stays, volunteer opportunities, construction projects and more – for mission groups. Groups will be charged a fee per person, and once administrative costs are covered, the funds from these fees will be placed into a fund to cover medical expenses for people of low resources.
Please visit their blog, currently in development, for more information and updates.

Because I believe that it is important to share all sides of every story:
US$ 1 Billion to be Invested in Nicaragua
“PRONicaragua, the official investment promotion agency of Nicaragua, recently reported that nearly US$1 billion are expected to flow into the country in foreign direct investment (FDI) in the next couple of years as a result of numerous FDI projects soon to be developed in different economic sectors. 2010 is rapidly becoming the recovery year for Nicaragua, as savvy investors are increasingly choosing Nicaragua as the ideal destination to start a business due to its dynamic economy, strategic location and natural beauty.”
