Nicaragua
Imagine living your whole life in a dump: rummaging through garbage for food and salvageable items to sell…sharing a wood and tin hovel with 15 members of your extended family…and, if you're a girl, selling your body to incoming truck drivers for the right to rummage through the garbage first.
That's the life that scores of young girls in Managua, Nicaragua's landfill are living. It's a life with no future…no security…no hope.
You can give these young girls a future. Our church is partnering with Forward Edge to share God's love with the families and girls living in the dump, and help develop a home-outside the dump-where they can get an education, learn a trade, and grow up with an awareness of God's love for them.
