Girls of La Pita, Matagalpa, Nicaragua

Reviewing photos from my visit to Nicaragua in July of 2011, I happened upon this gem.  I was visiting a remote village in the mountains in North-West Nicaragua in the department of Matagalpa, where Acción Médica Cristiana works to empower women and improve lives through small savings groups, a cow-bank program, health clinics, and other strategies.  Their website: amcenglish.org.
