Sontule is a community in the Segovia mountains of Northern Nicaragua. Sontule’s citizens work in small-scale cooperatives, producing delicious, organic fair trade coffee that they sell on the international market. Life in Sontule is generally, good. However, when families wish to invest in the education of their children, it gets a bit tougher. Given that the closest secondary school is over 10 km away, those without horses are unable to get to and attend classes.

In an act of solidarity and friendship, KHC, together with people of Purple Hill, Ontario, made some infrastructure improvements to the existing local primary school, so it can double as a secondary school on weekends and evenings. Take a look at the online blog for photos and details of this great project.

Marion Creek Benchlands is one of the last unprotected parcels of private land on the western benchland above Columbia Lake, in south-eastern BC. This 204 hectare property bridges two existing conservation areas, and its protection will secure an unbroken natural corridor that spans more than 30 square kilometres.

The Nature Conservancy of Canada is working to purchase Marion Creek Benchlands, so that the elk, deer, bear and other wildlife can continue to criss-cross the valley unhindered.

We have been supporting NCC’s efforts in British Columbia’s Elk Valley and Upper Columbia River Valley since 2001.
