Hundreds call the Managua garbage dump home, living in filth, poverty and hopelessness. The horrors of the child sex trade bruise the young girls living in the dump.

With the help of volunteers like you, Forward Edge has built Villa Esperanza, a Village of Hope that provides a home for some of the most vulnerable children from the dump.

You will play with children living in the dump and other local orphanages and protection centers, repair homes of poverty-stricken families, help build the new Village of Hope, and encourage the elderly in the dump and surrounding areas. While in Nicaragua, you will change lives!

When Hurricane Felix hit the Atlantic Coast of Nicaragua in September of 2007, it devastated already hurting towns and villages.  Hundreds of people lost their and many are still living in crudely tarped huts in an attempt to stay out of the weather. In addition, water tests have revealed high levels of bacteria and contaminates in their wells.

You can also help as we work to drill wells to provide clean water and reduce waterborne illnesses. You can work to improve a local orphanage while spending time with the wonderful children who call the orphanage home. You will impact the lives of the poorest of the poor in Nicaragua.
