So along with taking me to the beach to go clam digging, the group that was here also built a kitchen for an
elementary school in Zapata. The men mostly worked on the build while some of the women taught a sewing class in San Telmo. By the end of the week, 12 women in San Telmo had learned how to sew bags, blankets, pajamas, etc. It was really neat. It reminded me of that saying, “Don’t just give them fish, teach them how to fish.”
