Review for Norwalk Sister City Project, Inc., Norwalk, CT, USA
The Norwalk/Nagarote Sister City Project has had remarkable success working with at-risk teens in a desperately poor barrio in Nagarote, Nicaragua by providing after school activities including community service. Instead of getting involved with gangs and drugs, the youngsters created a tree nursery and grew more than 16,000 trees from seed over 4 years. They give the trees to residents who agree to care for them.
