Background
Some years ago in a small Evangelical Church, Pastor Freddie and his wife Marina started a program to provide a good breakfast before school for the
kids of San Bruno. Working out of the small kitchen attached to the church, they welcomed any child from the little village for breakfast. It was a
real challenge financially, and difficult purely by donations of time and money from the small fishing community.
About then George and
Lupe Nelson retired and moved San Bruno. After learning about the program they began volunteering. George discovered how little food the breakfast
program had, and seeing the need, and dug into his pocket and purchased $200 worth of food…which lasted about a week. Soon after, George began
managing the breakfast program, and dubbed it “Good Morning San Bruno!”. Since October 2013 he and Lupe, with volunteers Marina, Naty and Alicia, have
provided breakfast for children from 6-8:30 am every day school is in session. In 2014 Sharon Stewart joined George working in the kitchen daily,
purchasing groceries, starting a facebook page, and paypal account.
Currently the program provides breakfast, sanitation, drinking water and needed to serve 35 to 45 children each school day. The program is supported
by donations, and a ministry in San Ignacio. Any help; equipment, funding, food or time will be greatly appreciated.
