Hello everyone,

We leave for our trip to Colombia on the 20th of January. For the first time, we will share our experiences of the trip on a daily basis through Facebook and Twitter. Be sure to visit these sites to learn more about our trip and what we are doing. We are very excited to be able to revisit our past projects and to implement a new project in Orrokot, Colombia.

We hope everyone is having a great start to the new year!

Best regards,

Thank you Sam Horn and Matt Rutlin:

Hello everyone,

One of the nicest experiences while establishing and growing Aguayuda is all the wonderful people we have met along the journey.

In late October we met Sam Horn, an internationally-respected communication strategist, and Matt Rutlin, a videographer from MattNova Productions.
Since then they have provided generous integral support to improving our latest Aguayuda presentation that we showed at the 5-year anniversary presentation on December 1, 2011.

On the 14th of January, we were invited by Sam Horn as guests to attend her “Want to Turn Your Passion and Purpose into a Paying Profession?” workshop. We even were given the opportunity to talk to 100 people about our passion - Aguayuda - and how it came about and what we do. It was a great event where we were able to meet many interesting and good people doing great things in many areas. During the event, we supported Matt Rutlin in filming the event and taking photos.

We are honored to have Matt film our next fundraising event on the 21st of February at Paolo's Ristorante in Reston, Virgina with the support of Networking for Good. Please register at: http://networkingforgood.com/events/february-2012-aguayuda/

Thank you Sam and Matt for providing us wonderful support to our mission to provide clean water and education to poor rural communities in developing countries.

Best regards,
