El Salvador: Lessons On Love And Resilience

Ten years ago, 19-year-old Anna Stout made her first trip to a small community in El Salvador. The people of El Espino soon became her family and the town her second home. She helped form the Foundation for Cultural Exchange, a Colorado-based nonprofit, which has been changing lives in El Espino and in Colorado ever since. November 2014 marks 10 years since that relationship began and this book is a celebration of that first decade. Stout writes of the culture's beauty and suffering, its struggles and survival. Her stories pay homage to the resilience, generosity, and warmth of the Salvadoran people. This book offers a narrative that is distinct from the hopelessness and bloodshed reported in the media, and instead humanizes the struggle to overcome the unimaginable odds to succeed and thrive in El Salvador.
