B3 Board of Directors (Howard Greene and Liz Mauer) joined Executive Director, Amy Schroeder-Riggio and traveled to Ecuador to celebrate and inaugurate the projects that B3 worked on in February, March and April of 2023. A plaque was presented at each of the sites as a way to commemorate our collaboration and our time in the communities of Maicito and Tingo Pucara.

The Amanecer, Equipo Esperanza and Rock-It! teams worked with families in the community of Maicito to build 2 additional classrooms at Escuela de Rumiñahu, enabling more children to attend the local school rather than travel long distances, or not go to school at all.
