Slideshow of Salem International in Mindo, Ecuador.

I put together a slideshow of some of the many photos taken by the children of Salem with the donated cameras. A few of the photos are mine, but mainly the children have captured wonderful images of themselves, the buildings some of them call home, and the surrounding area. Jonas and Karen are the very caring people who take care of the children along with Paula, a young woman from Mindo.

The Children of Salem International in Mindo

The children of Salem International, the German foundation that cares for 12 children on a boarding basis, and another 24 on a day care after school everyday schedule, loved the cameras. They took to them right away and the biggest challenge was keeping them charged and the memory cards empty enough for them to fill them up again. Here are some photos I took of them and some they took of me and each other.

Taken by one of the children, Janet is on the right, a friend of mine from the states that was a big help.

The boy in the middle is deaf, he really enjoyed using the cameras and come up with some great shots.
