The left half of this photo shows this sweet little girl waiting while cheese sandwiches were handed out at a coffee coop meeting in Nicaragua.

dreams nicaragua

Everyone needs a dream. Three Avocados was born out of a dream and continues to be a dream for me. With access to clean water, better hygiene, and education, the dreams of the next generation can come true. So chase your dreams, and never give up. The world needs you. -Joe
