Photo Friday

I actually took this photo a couple of months ago as I was walking down one of the main streets here in Cochabamba.  Yep...  the rainy season had started.


But since then, Bolivia has received approximately three times its normal rainfall, and there have been some devastating effects in some areas of the country.  The latest statistics I saw indicated 60,000 families have lost homes, over 55 people have drowned, and over 50,000 head of livestock have died.

Our Field Leader, Dan Collins, recently blogged about what we are doing, and shared some articles and pictures as well.  In this post, he has also provided an opportunity for people to give financially to help people in crisis here in Bolivia.  Please click here to read his post.
