Look who just got a brand new bike

Thanks to the generosity of our friends and coworkers, we were able to send a little bit of money to the Home with Rocio. With it, Osvaldo purchased this awesome "Transporter 200" motorcycle:

Osvaldo's truck was having frequent mechanical problems, so this motorcycle will be hugely helpful. Especially to transport supplies to the Home within town.

"That's how I'll take all of you guys to school from now on," Osvaldo teased the girls.
"After driving in a truck, there's no way I'm downgrading to a motorcycle!" replied one of the little ones.

Huge thanks to everyone who keeps supporting El Puente Home!

First classes in the Training Center and Garage Sale

The Training Center is not 100% finished but that hasn't stopped the girls from having their first classes there.

And here they are with their newly donated backpacks:

In other news, we had our first garage sale today to raise funds for the Home. It went really well; we raised over $700! Thanks to everyone who stopped by or donated items!
