About:
There are 9 of us seniors helping out. All of us are taking Government this year and we are eligible to get credit hours. the Pulsera Project is a non profit organization that sustains employment and provides funding for housing, medical assistance, scholarships, and many other things for nearly 200 people countries such as Guatemala and Nicaragua. each Pulsera is hand made by artisans living in these countries and each is only $5 and it comes with a tag containing the artisans picture and signature. all of the money that is made gets sent back to the organization which is then used to help fund some of the programs mentioned previously.
Grace, our goalie, has taken the lead on the project. she received all of the materials from the project which includes over 400 bracelets. we had done a sale at her home and also we each take a certain amount of bracelets to sell on our own through our own personal connections!
