Andean Aymara

A special thanks to Noreen LeMieux for her generous donation to the Andean Outreach Program. Her support will provide each of the roughly 50 Muylaque children with a small bag containing a toothbrush, toothpaste, and soap. In this place where dental hygene is basically non-existant and with the additional importance of hand-washing given potential H1N1 outbreaks, these gifts are especially welcome. ¡Yusilupay!

For a slice of life in Moquegua, check out the video of myself and Edwin Banegas Flores together with Gustavo Valcarcél buying these supplies.
