I support Mi Esperanza because I know that my investment in this organization will generate returns for many years.  There is a well-known saying, “If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day.  Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.”  This is what Mi Esperanza is all about, and I love to be able to support the education of many women in Honduras.

Creating Jewelry... creating change

October 05, 2015Lori Connell

I love beauty: like pretty curtains, and bold bright dishes that match bold bright walls; beautiful paintings of flowers or people.   I love pretty boxes that sit on a table next to a pretty lamp and vase. I love the beauty in the blue sky as it meets the ocean’s deep blue and I the smoky haze in the mountains at dusk. When I see these things, my soul is fed and I am reminded of the beauty of God.

New Hope
