Collage of student activities

Good News! Mexican government opened local schools May 17, 2021 for small classes. All Covid 19 procedures are still in place.

HHWT opened our classes to ages 11 to 19 on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Since Covid 19 in 2020 shut down for 14 months we lost several volunteers at the school. New classes for teaching safety and woodworking skills for older volunteers over age 50 on Tuesday and Thursday morning's.

Thank you all for your donations. The HHWT school is now just meeting most of its current monthly expenses. HHWT hopes to build up our reserves by the end of 2022.

We are meeting with Leon our young architect who lives in Ajijic. Date is Tuesday June 22, 2021 at 10 AM at the HHWT school on the back lawn or it it rains inside the HHWT office.

Leon was referred by Arif who is the son of Paul and Alma's son Alma is our HHWT lawyer.

Leon would like to talk with board of directors about assisting with a plan to buy our building,

as well as create preliminary drawings . He will help us create a vision of where we want to be in 3 to 5 years from now.

We now have the need to develop a capital campaign steering group. I welcome your help to create and guide our 3 yo 5 year vision. I invite you to join us and help and be part this vision.
