Emails of Support Requested!

We have received the following request for help from Dorothée Potter-Daniau, so we're forwarding it here for your consideration:
Dear friends,

You may remember Paul and Becca, from the Jubilee House in Nicaragua.
They were at yearly meeting this year and they also did a presentation of their work in Nicaragua at Churchtown Meeting last spring.



They need support at the moment, because the company they had a deal with won't hold to their promise. They're inviting people to send e- mail to urge the company to act with integrity.
All is explained here:

The Center for Development in Central America (CDCA) is a non-profit organization seeking to address human needs created by poverty in the Western Hemisphere’s second poorest nation by helping communities become self-sufficient, sustainable, democratic entities; by working with Nicaraguan communities to help them realize their own goals, rather than bringing in “ready-made solutions.” This involves community organization, a flexible approach to needs and priorities as they shift over time, identifying areas where the CDCA can be of service, and following through in those areas, while empowering Nicaraguans and gradually phasing out the need for the CDCA’s assistance.
