Third Micro Empresa: La Panaderia

The Panaderia is located right next to the Comedor. The Ladies wake up bright and early and make the bread fresh everyday. In these pictures the Panaderia along with some of the other micro empresas had actual courses where they trained the people in the community skills so that they could go out and get work in these fields. Que Bueno! 

 Right now I am working with the Director of a Colegio here on making the projects of the Mujeres De Lucha more sustainable (your gonna hear that word a lot...at least if I'm doing a good job you will...) We were thinking that if we can get sales of the bread up and maybe sell it in other places besides the barrio, then the Panaderia can be a source of funds that sustain, the Comedor for example. That would be such a shining moment, if we no longer had to look outside of the barrio for a way to make sure the kids eat! But all of that takes time and planning, so that's another thing on this hot and full plate of mine :) I think it is very possible to see that happen in the two years I'm here. Vamos a ver! :)
