JustWorld International Launches ‘Adopt a Project’ Campaign
Wednesday, June 06 2012
by Editor
Wellington, Florida— JustWorld International is launching a new campaign on June 4 aimed at making it even easier for supporters to get involved, and to choose exactly which programs they would like their donations to fund. JustWorld International is a not-for-profit humanitarian organization which funds life-changing programs for impoverished children in Cambodia, Honduras, Guatemala, and Brazil. The ‘Adopt a Project’ campaign identifies opportunities to support a number of highly successful nutrition, health and hygiene, education, and leadership and cultural development programs and allows donors to choose which of JustWorld’s numerous initiatives they would like to support. Their new campaign is a great opportunity for individuals, groups and businesses to get involved by taking on an entire project, helping to provide critical operational support to JustWorld projects. Angela Covert-Lawrence at the JustWorld Project Site in Guatemala JustWorld Rider Ambassador Angela Covert-Lawrence did just that three years ago, committing to pay for the annual salary of a doctor at a medical clinic at the Los Patojos site in Jocotenango, Guatemala. “During my second visit to Guatemala, I had the opportunity to meet the doctor in person,” said Covert-Lawrence, a grand prix show jumping rider representing Canada. “He explained to me what he wanted to do, and how he was going to be able to provide the much needed medical care for the children. I asked how much, and agreed to adopt the project right there on the spot, while standing in the middle of the clinic.” It was a decision that would prove to be life-changing, both for Covert-Lawrence and the community at Los Patojos as a whole

Devon Grand Prix
Saturday, June 02 2012
by Editor
It is surely coming as no surprise to you that McLain Ward won the Grand Prix on Thursday night, but I thought you’d like to see how he did it. This is a photo essay about Ward and his mount, since 2010, Antares F, an 11 year old Wurtemburger grey gelding ( http://www.theequinest.com/breeds/wurttemberger ) and Margie Engle and her horse, Indigo, a 12 year old gelding who was second. Chill R Z, ridden by Charlie Jayne was third; Cedric, ridden by Laura Kraut was fourth; and Vornado Van Den Hoendrik, ridden by Jessica Springsteen was fifth. Less than one second separated first and second place in the jump off, Ward having ridden it in 34.32 seconds and Engle in 35.28. McLain Ward and Antares F The First Round Leaving the ring after the first round, Ward communes with his horse. The Jump Off begins….. …..and ends. Leaving the ring after the awards ceremony and victory gallop. Margie Engle and Indigo in their first round.
