   My Promise

                     by Rosa Y Angela from Peru.

I am Rosa, Angelita´s aunt. She is only 2 years and 2 months old, but she already is part of a great and wonderful experience. We live in Puerto Maldonado in a beautiful community called Isla Rolin. It takes one hour ride in a "peque peque" to get there from Puerto Maldonado. "Peque Pique's" are traditional boats we use in the region.

We are a part of the project called "el Bosque de Niņos" (the children forest) and we want to make it come true for us to have a better life with our children. Angelita is my niece that lives with me and she is a part of this big dream that will come true with the help and good means of so many Peruvian and foreigner people that could support this project.

There's a large area with virgin forests in my community were the entry of hunters is not allowed. Some one very wise told me once "I have the feeling that only for something good I preserve the trees and the forest without destroying it". There is where we are creating our children's forest.

What else could I say about this magical place in the world? The emotion that this place gives me is very big and I would like to invite you to my humble home to share and enjoy this beautiful adventure and dream from which you will not want to wake up. You will be welcome any time as well as other people in the world.

All we dream with this is that Angelita like so many other children in this country may enjoy and be part of a different world surrounded with trees and forests. This also will convert our community into a better place to live. A place where children may enjoy to dream, to play and have there own garden and a ecological piece of land were all nature things are treated with love and respect.

We also dream about building a home for children next to the school for those that can not access schooling because they live to far. We could also build there a handicraft work shop and find the way to manage our natural resources and our forest in a sustainable way.

I thank you for your time reading this lines and hope that this dream has become yours too. Let's all become part of this challenge in building together a better world with great children, where nature is being protected and where Angelita, me and all of you are the leading figures. This dream is a promise that I hope and would like to see become real in the year 2015.

Let's go for it!!!!

Mrs. Rosa.
