My name is Angela Maloney and I'm a senior at Ledyard High School. This summer I lived in rural Paraguay, volunteering with Amigos de las Americas and PLAN International. I lead community service projects to prevent deforestation, promote fuel efficient stoves, and improve nutrition. I worked closely with local youth to develop leadership and plant seeds for lasting change.

Last night I sold refreshments at the first Cupcakes (and Causes) meeting. I am hoping to do more small fundraisers and I will keep you posted about the dates and times of these events. Also, I would like to thank the Ledyard Lions Club for the generous donation I received today.

The article in The Thames River Times was published this week. Because AMIGOS keeps your information confidential, I am unable to receive personal information from online donors. If you are donating online, and want follow up information upon my return, please either send me your e-mail or home address. Thanks!

The first online donation was sent to my AMIGOS account today, courtesy of Mr. Jannke and his son Gianni. If you donate with a credit card, please notify me at AngelaMaloney10@yahoo.com or sectamigos@gmail.com so I can send you information about my trip upon my return.

What is AMIGOS all about?
