While paperwork is being finalized for work planned in Honduras, ITEC took the time to put together a charity food drive. We were through the generous donations of friends, family, and colleagues we were about to raise $5,000. The money benefited two rest-homes (old folks home as they are called in Honduras) in Olanchito and La Ceiba and and was used to create food baskets that were given to randomly to some of the most needy.

Paul and Debra Isaacks of ITEC Drywall were able to attend the donations and hand out the baskets themselves, and once the hurdle of exchanging US dollars to Lempira (Honduran native currency) was over taken, they ran into mother nature in the form of the rainy season. With much help they moved forward and were able to achieve the goals they had left Texas to take care of.

"We felt very good about being able to help so many and yet very bad that there were so many we were not able to help." said Paul Isaacks of the food drive.

The two of them handed out baskets on the way to the old folks home in Olanchito, two hours away from La Ceiba, Honduras. The baskets were helpful two fold to all who received them, they contained food and supplies the baskets could be used to launder clothes in the river. Debra brought her own special treat and to the delight of the children (and probably dismay of some mothers!) handed out large amounts of candy to all who were playing outside.

We at ITEC Drywall want to say thank you to all who donated, and GOD BLESS you all for bringing a little happiness to a lot of people.
