Done collecting

The last phase in the United States has begun regarding my current project: to help the needy in Colombia next month.  After heavily promoting my campaign during the past months, I have managed to collect everything necessary to help the needy in Colombia.  I am officially announcing that El Talon will once again be the village that I will be helping in Colombia.  As many know, El Talon has been the town that has benefited the most from my campaign, and I will continue helping them.  I was thinking of what I should do to expand Beyond the Wall, and after listening to many opinions, I have decided to stay in El Talon, and at the same time, expand my project.  I will not stop helping El Talon until I have felt that I have marked a permanent difference; in the near future, I would like to begin plans of a community center in that village.  At this time, I have finished receiving donations to take to Colombia, and I have began my preparation for my trip to Colombia, which should be towards the end of the current month.  The distribution in El Talon is planned for the first week of July.   














I am also very happy to announce that I will be filming a documentary regarding my social work in Colombia to present it here in the United States.  I think that documenting what I love to do in the form of video is very professional, and at the same time cool.













I want to thank everyone that helped me during the first half of 2010, and I would like to point out the company Isle Apparel from Daytona Beach; the company became the largest donor in the history of Beyond the Wall.  I also want to thank all of my followers/donors that have supported my project since I began.
