ACTIVITIES FOR ELDERLY IN THE ECUADORIAN AMAZON

During the pandemic, the Ministry of Health would not allow us to do anything with groups in our Elderly project, but now that controls have been lifted, there is more movement and interest in programs for the elderly. We have received a few small groups and are talking to organizations coordinating larger groups. We still have a lot of activities lined up for this age segment, in part because I am in that age group! Me in my 80 years, am still going strong on the social media platforms with over 1.3 million followers. Tens of millions have watched the videos. We are coming to the end of the year when people are thinking about donations, and would like to ask that you consider Yachana in your plans. Thanks, keep in touch. Love, Douglas

India, Pakistan, Iran, Spain, Italy, the UK, the USA and other parts of the world are seeing temperatures that they have never seen before. From 40 to 52 degrees Celsius (104 to 126 Fahrenheit). This is causing a number of crisis from just straight human deaths to the dying of pollen of plants, many food plants, collapse of energy grids due to over demand, train rails buckling from the heat and roads so hot they can’t be used; plus much more. We are doing our part to save part of the Amazon rainforest. The rainforests are one of the largest equalizers of global heat. We are transmitting this message via our different platforms on Social Media. Across all of the platforms we have over 850,000 followers and over 70 million people have looked at the videos. Thank you for your support to make all of this possible. Douglas
