Outcome of trip to Colombia

August 21st, 2011

Fernando and Dr. Jaime Cajigas.

Fernando Nunez Esquiaqui, Director of the Beyond the Wall Campaign, recently traveled to Colombia to continue preparing for the 2011 Christmas distribution in El Talon.  On August 8th, Fernando flew to Cartagena to speak with Mr. Miguel Arnedo, Mayor of the Municipality of Turbaco, Bolivar (where El Talon is located).  The outcome of the meeting with Mr. Arnedo was a generous donation of land in the El Talon area to build a children's park.  This park will be inaugurated on December 23rd, 2011, during the planned distribution.  On August 11th, Fernando flew to Bogota, capital of Colombia, where he met with Dr. Jaime Cajigas, father of Juan Esteban Cajigas, Human Resource Manager for Beyond the Wall.  Dr. Cajigas confirmed full support for the campaign's upcoming distribution.  Fernando returned to Orlando on August 13th, and on August 18th, Dr. Cajigas confirmed that a medical mission will be conducted during the Beyond the Wall distribution/park inauguration on December 23rd, 2011.  

The trip to Cartagena and Bogota was very successful, as both a park and a medical mission was confirmed.  Beyond the Wall would like to thank Mr. Miguel Arnedo and Dr. Jaime Cajigas for all the support!

With Mr. Miguel Arnedo, Mayor of Turbaco, Bolivar.
