I recently received this letter from Rev. Carl thingyerson. He is the Methodist preacher out of south Alabama who will be sending down library brooks for the schools in Honduras. Several AHMEN teams will be participating with his book program.
He is looking for teams who might be interested in distributing free wheelchairs in Honduras. If you, your team, or anyone you know would like to be part of this new, exciting ministry contact Carl below.
Hello Tom,
I hope all is well.
Do you know the town Santa Rosa de Copan in Honduras?
Have I mentioned to you that in addition to books, I raise funds for
wheelchairs. Delivering wheelchairs is an important part of my ministry. We
have sent three containers of wheelchairs to Costa Rica and two to Peru.
There are 280 new wheelchairs in each container. I raise $21,000 for each
container--$75 per wheelchair. There is the possibility that a company that
has a factory in Santa Rosa de Copan would donate $10,000 toward a container
of wheelchairs for Honduras. They would want wheelchairs delivered to people
in the this town. I would raise the remaining funds and we would have
wheelchairs for other parts of Honduras.
Below is a link to a news story that was shown on national TV in Costa Rica
recently. It is of a wheelchair distribution at the Alajuela Methodist
Church in Alajuela Costa Rica with a VIM team I took from Brewton, Alabama:

We will submit the grant for the books in July. There is the possibility of
a second grant as well with another Rotary Club.
Can you give me a call: 850-291-3379
Blessings,
Carl
