Memo

    Juarez has many communities in poor conditions and often need help from the community for food and shelter.With in the poor communities  there is one family that immediately call attention,Within the poor communities there it stands an old school bus that became the home of a couple and 3 children.The father of this family became blind after an car battery explored in his face exposing him to battery Acid making him unable to get a job.Here in the El Paso community there is an organization by the Ruiz family called J.E.M ministries that dedicate then selfs to feeding and clothing the needed families in Juarez. Every week end they prepare 200+ burritos that they take to Juarez along with collected clothing for the needed.Years ago they stopped working on their unfinished home to help the needed and as a reward for their efforts they were chosen by the show extreme makeover to rebuilt their house but this time with 2 industry ready kitchens so they can continue helping their organization grow larger helping more people.

Central Asia

When i finished watching the video about Central asia the first thing that i remembered was how the guy promised he would come back and build a school and how he actually did. It only took one good person to move forward.This makes me think about building a future and how more people like this can help construct a future and my mental picture draws a tree that represents the future by education and the roots being strong like the people that help build it. I learned about places where woman are lucky to get to 5th grade in education and in most cases this is enough to teach them health and how to use protection and take care of them selfs witch helps prevent population explosions. And in places like this many agree that woman deserve education and are welling to progress into educating girls and boys equally. This kids live in extreme poor conditions but they have the desire to learn and become important people in their community. I agree that education is the future...
