After we left the new sports field at the Titus Foundation Center with Thomas, we visited the Center where Andy works -- the Social Reintegration Center for Youth.
Here we met the Director, and Peggy gave her some sports equipment for the Social Reintegration Center for Youth. Sadly, the children here were napping at the time we stopped by, so Peggy was not able to play with them.
However, we enjoyed our tour of this facility, which now includes a greenhouse vegetable garden (one of Andy's projects). Vegetables grown in the garden (by the children) are used at the Center and can also be sold at the market for funds to support the Center's activities.
