Strathcona Christian Academy (where Andrea teaches) works closely with a Mission and Special Needs School in Vicente Guerrero. Last year $178,000 was raised to build a new Education Centre there. Andrea is part of a team (all Grade 2 teachers) going to prepare the classrooms, work with students, and help out at the orphanage there.
