Jewelry Fundraising for Hands to Honduras

Jewelry and Hunduran craft sales have been a mainstay of fundraising for Honduran projects. During their multiple travels to Honduras, Tom and Carol Plumb have purchased crafts and jewelry from Belize,Guatemala, Mexico and Honduras for resale. Carol has also made countless necklaces, bracelets, and ear rings for sale using fetishes, beads, shells, and other items purchased along the roads and beaches of Central America. These items are then sold at festivals throughout the lower Rio Grande Valley and at presentations to Rotary Clubs. Jewelry and craft sales have resulted in the construction a computer lab in Matute, Honduras, a computer lab in Tela, Honduras, a road to San Isidro, Honduras, as well as a school and classroom furniture in San Isidro. In 2007, jewelry and crafts sales paid for two new classrooms. In 2008, jewelry sales should be able to pay for two additional classrooms.
