After over two months of not posting anything, I have the pleasure to announce that I have spent this time changing the format of Beyond the Wall. Since March until the beginning of May, I had guidance regarding the future of this campaign. Rebecca Matos, who is part of the administration at the University of Central Florida, gave me all the much needed advice so Beyond the Wall can continue to grow. One of the most obvious changes that will be made to my campaign is the creation of a board of directors. It was a very difficult decision since it is complicated to trust people. It took me approximately a month and a half to think of and organize a group of candidates to become part of Beyond the Wall. Luckily, I finally thought of two young students that are perfect for this job. During the beginning of May, I interviewed them, and I finally chose them. The new members of the Beyond the Wall board of directors are:
- Adriane Norman, born in Toledo, Ohio (of Iranian descent), and student at the University of Central Florida.
- Juan Esteban Cajigas, born in Bogota, Colombia and Junior at Timber Creek High School.
On Saturday, June 4th, we will have our first board meeting, where we will discuss our positions and the future of Beyond the Wall. As of that date, every decision regarding Beyond the Wall will be done as a group.
I will soon publish more information regarding the date of our future distribution in Colombia, when we will build a children's park in El Talon, and more. These months have been filled with progress, and I want to thank Mrs. Matos for all the help. I also want to welcome Adriane Norman and Juan Esteban Cajigas to Beyond the Wall!
I invite you to follow me on Facebook (Beyond the Wall Campaign-Colombia) and through Twitter (@BeyondTheWallCO).
