Special thank you from the people burned in the December fire at Huembes Market in Managua. 
 
  "I am writing this Thank You - Letter in my brother's name, Elvin and in my own name because I think the work that is being performing by this Organization (WN/P) is very important since the moral support shared with people that has gone through such horrible, sad and painful experience is invaluable. Unfortunately, we had to live that terrible experience, but we thank God for having know Wisconsin Nicaragua Partners." 

Assisting burned patients is possible thanks to donors in WI, USA who donate funds to purchase the special fabric and material used for making the different kind of garments and to the Nicaraguan volunteers who have a great spirit to serve by putting into practice their unique abilities to make the special pieces needed.  The total number of custom made garments for this group of burned patients was up to 48 pieces.  

Please note, the garment recipients volunteered to share their photos and experiences with you, use discretion as some photos are graphic.  Click here for report.

"My sincere thank you to Wisconsin/Nicaragua Partners on behalf of Sofia, she is a baby who needed the wheelchair urgently. Now you have made my dream come true because we can take her out to places. Honestly, I don't have words to express my gratefulness. May God bless you immensely and the donor for caring for people in need and with special needs" 

Special thanks to Ki-Mobility for donating Sofia's wheelchair, and the March travel group who checked it as a piece of luggage, making this all possible within a month!
