We are pleased to report that our donors decided to add a kiosk, surveillance area, and ceramics in the exhibition area of our Lenca loom project in the community of El Cacao, Intibuca. We also delivered 600 unites of acrylic wool, the raw material used to make these beautiful looms. During the visit, a donation of vegetable seed was also made to support the farmers in the community.
Regarding the progress at the EPROHCIL workshop, they have increased their artisanal machinery and the number of people employed. There are currently 30 people working at this facility and most of the workers are investing their income in education and agriculture on their own lands. The products are selling very well since Sotero, President of EPROHCIL, has organized his employees to attend the Saturday Market in San Pedro Sula and Tegucigalpa, the main cities of Honduras.
