On to Grenada to Actually Work on Humanitarian.

We headed off to Grenada to look for Humanitarian Projects and to teach the local leaders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints about the Humanitarian System.

 

View of Barbados as we leave.  Sure looks flat, but we know different, just look at the previous post.

Flying over the clouds.

That's Grenada.

 

Richmond Home for the Elderly.  This is where we hope to do a project which will assist the residents.  This home is run by the government of Grenada and provides care for elderly people who would otherwise be on the street.  The building is part of an old British fort.  The current structure was rebuilt after a Hurricane destroyed it several years ago.

 

 

Look at the wall. I said it was old.

 

We went to the North end of the island to look at the Samaritan Presbyterian Primary School. Checking for another project.

 

This area they hope to make into a computer room.  This will help the students come into the latest century and enhance their learning experience.

 

Just one of the classrooms.

 

 

Another classroom. 

 

This one has 2 classes in it meeting at the same time.  Notice the classroom divider.

 

Just wish we could solve all the problems, but just not enough money.  Here the roof was leaking.  They hope to get the money to fix this through some fund raising ventures. Even with all the problems we could see the principal was very upbeat and proud of this school.  He showed us around the school with evident pride.
