Last June 23, 2012, at last, I was able to visit our 3rd community in Lakewood, Zamboanga del Sur where 45 yellow boats were distributed late last year to several households where kids have to walk 3 hours around the lake just to get to school. With the yellow boats, they just need to row 30 minutes to school.

Many thanks to I CAN make a difference for bringing us to Lakewood, Zamboanga del Sur during the inauguration of their half-way house.

Here are some pictures I took during the inauguration:
