FEI TO RESCUE PROSTITUTED GIRLS FROM NICARAGUAN CITY DUMP
March 23, 2007

Vancouver, WA – Forward Edge International made a $30,000 down payment on a two-acre property in Managua, Nicaragua to house Hogar de Esperanza (translated Home of Hope) on Wednesday, March 14. Hogar de Esperanza will be a home for at-risk girls currently living in La Chureca, a community inside the Managua city dump. Some families, desperate to meet basic needs, have prostituted their daughters – girls as young as 11-years-old. These girls are urgently in need of a safe haven! In addition to providing for the girls’ basic physical needs, the home will provide spiritual counseling, educational assistance and vocational training.
