Phase 2 of Breaking through Barriers Begins!

John Frank Reeve, Larry Myers and Deb Myers

A second team was in Romania this week doing a construction project on the 3rd floor the Point of Hope Development Center in Tarneveni, Romania. The team was led by ACF co-founder John Frank Reeve. Also on the team were Larry and Deb Myers and Bonnie Hebert. All of the team members were from Lafayette, Louisiana.

As many of you may know Another Child Foundation, in 2015 had our first capital campaign called Breaking through Barriers. The focus of the campaign was to raise funds to renovate 3 rooms into life-skill development rooms. One being a wood-working classroom, another being a sewing or fabrics classroom, and the final room a cooking classroom. These life skill rooms are to be completed this summer with the help of 2 mission teams and a construction crew from Romania. Also included in this renovation was a large restroom including 5 toilets and two sinks for the 80+ after-school kids attending the Point of Hope. Because our supporters were so generous we were also able to start on a pre-school recreation room. This room will eventually have an indoor playground and other learning stations for our 40 pre-school children.

Below is a series of pictures for you to look at. Please remember that these rooms had been completed striped of EVERYTHING of value. All the wiring and wood had been stripped years ago by local residents to sell for food.

I ask that you please look at he video below to understand the vision of the Breaking through Barriers campaign.
