DOC continued...

Nicaragua hosts two seperate Day of Celebration due to the large number of homes participating in the program and the long distances between all of them. I missed the first event hosted in Managua in May, but I did attend the second event hosted in Chinandega in August. It was a beautiful, hot day and the children arrived full of excitement and anticipation for their performances and sporting events.


These cute bunnies are from one of AOH's newest homes in Nicaragua. It was their first time attending our Day of Celebration event and they had a wonderful time. They participated in everything and you could see how much time and effort they put into practicing their performances. Look at how adorable they are!

One of the many Marching Bands that we purchased and distributed to the children's homes last year. Initially they only started learning percussion and the trumpet. By now they have expanded and are utilizing every single one of the 40 instrument band that they received from us, in only 8 months time! These boys did such a great job and they were very proud. Can't wait to see the development by next year!
