Sustainable projects in all their glory in Ecuador

All the communities and volunteers were delighted to see GVI Phoenix Ecuador founders Dom and Doreen again here in Ecuador.

They had the chance to see first hand the great work being done on the sustainable projects thanks to donations from volunteers.

Cuy (guinea pig) houses and cows were visited and the community leaders took the opportunity to thank Dom and Doreen for continuing their strong support for all 3 communities here.
