Visit to President Rolando

So today three of us (2 women from Chiaucingo and myself) went to see the president of the neighboring municipality. Aquilina (from Chiaucingo) did most of the talking. We're trying to get some matching funds to build more dry latrines in Chiaucingo. At first Pres Roland started telling us why he doesn't have any money right now to support the project. We listened. Then I mentioned that this year we (MCC) have some money for the project and how great it would be to have a mix of funds. He paused, rethought his answer, and started making some phone calls. In the end he told us to come back on Sunday at 9am and he'll tell us how much cement he can donate to the project. YES!!!!!
