Ninos del Fortin and Los Chavaladas in Leon

Allison and Bethany have been spending their service weeks in Leon, a northern city that seems to attract numerous European volunteers and tourists. Ninos del Fortin is an organization that helps educate and house street kids. There are two locations: Ninos del Fortin and Los Chavaladas. Bethany is at Ninos del Fortin which is a day school and helps in a math class and gives craft lessons and does general playground supervision. Allison is at Chavaladas where some of the boys have school and room and board. Allison does health related activities and also plays soccer and any other game the boys fancy at the moment.

Bethany is spending the last two weeks at a health clinic near Jinotepe in order to get a feel for what nursing is like in Nicaragua.
