Daycare Oasis

Today was a wonderful day! The morning went as usual but in the afternoon, I did heights and weights on 70 daycare children, what a treat!
The daycare oasis is part of Safe Passage, right across the street from the dump. You can loose your self in the tranquil setting until the wind shifts and you remember where you are.
The drive in takes you past filth most of us couldn't image. Not to mention the bodies lying on the side of the street who've been huffing glue or spraypaint. It's all in a day for these children, 2 to 7 years of age, to step over the bodies and trash into the place they get to call home 7 hours a day, 5 days a week.
There they are fed 2 nutritious meals a day. The food is purchased and delivered by one of the board members. They receive vitamins each day donated by Shared Beat and have a full day of "Montesori like" instruction, including English and dance. This program and all of the furniture in the building were furnished by Oneness. The former Director of Oneness is now the new director of Safe Passage.
There is an amazing playground, international volunteers and teachers who adore every inch of each child. There is love oozing over the 10 foot perimeter security walls. I wish you all could vsit, you'd love it!

Feliz Dia
