Greeting From The Children of Intibuca.

Thank you so much for your wonderful visit and support for the children here in Intibuca. Your participation this project has brought much happiness to many people.  Thank you so much for your good work planting trees in Japan as well as your work in planting trees here in Intibuca.

You were such a warm and welcoming person.  I immediately felt a friendship and connection to you.  I apologize that I have not been speaking Japanese for so many years that I did not remember the words I knew before.  But your warmth took the place of the necessity for so much talking.  Thank you again.

Many people here who are poor or are having difficult times do not have time to spend with children.  But I noticed your patience and willingness to spend time with them.  Thank you for giving them the self esteem to feel important to someone who has come from so far.  You were humble yet very competent.  It was a good example for me because sometimes I am a bit assertive..

Volunteers are the solution to development in Honduras.  I say volunteers are on the right side of the bell curve on the side of altruism. I know I volunteer because I feel that I have  been given many gifts, a chance for an education that others have not received.  I have had many good relationships that others may not have had.  I feel that because I was given so much it now my turn to give to others.  Simply because it is the right thing to do.  I believe that most volunteers feel that way.  A true volunteer gives because there is something inside him or her that wants to get out that wants to give to others

For that reason I was very happy for your visit to Intibuca.  I hope that this is the beginning of a  wonderful friendship between the people of Intibuca and the people of Hokkaido.  I have asked Mr. Sakai to help me in the creation of the Japan Honduras Sports Friendship Society.  I would like to invite you to join with me in this project to develop student exchanges between Hokkaido, Sapporo and the people of Intibuca.

The teachers in the school were very happy with the trees and are very proud of them.  They have cleaned around the trees and chopped the grass.  I enjoyed watching you work with the trees and the way you placed grass in each hole.  I had never seen that before.  I learned a lot from you. Thank you very much.

 It is our hope that you will continue to reach out to these wonderful children who are so in need. These indigenous children have a difficult future ahead of them. So that any help that can be given to them is wonderful.  Thank you so much.

Yours sincerely,

Dra. Carol Cross
