Hands on Chocolatadas


Neale Donald Walsh said,
The larger your understanding of who you really are, the smaller your ego.

Gandhi said,
The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.




This is my friend Washi, one of the organizers of the Chocolatadas in the Sacred Valley in Peru, and the person who took these beautiful photos.







These children are given unequal access to resources.

To read about huge hearted Washi Gibaja's work with his people, see : www.pathoftheheart. org

We are fund raising here in Spain to support his soup kitchen for street children in Ollantaytambo, as well as many Chocolatadas in the same area.

If you would like to support Washi's work, you can make a donation through the path of the heart website.

This year, the community of Orgiva in Andalucia Spain, is also supporting Chocolatadas in Bolivia. These are for street children, under the umbrella of www.compatrono. Ivan Nogales ,the director( an Akosha Fellow), with many young people, has created a truly wonderful arts center for street children and youth at risk in El Alto, Bolivia.
