An amazing crew

During our trip to the Dominican Republic the Children International staff gave us a tour of their offices there. We met their amazing staff and spent the better part of two days with them as chaperones throughout the villages and in the city. The staff members in a few of these photos are only part of the wonderful crew that takes care of all the letters to the children sponsored through CI that live in the Dominican Republic. They handle the translations of over 20,000 letters each month to and from sponsors to their sponsored children. The amazing individuals we met that kept us laughing in the van rides to and from our visits to the children’s homes and were brave enough to go with us to the Science center and even shopping with us and the children. I was very fortunate to have met them and hope to see them again in the future.

It's nice to see all of you there, and learning about and meeting first-hand, everyone involved in the program.

Hi Susan! Which one are you, Wendy?
