New Year Update

Happy New Year to all our sponsors and supporters!

I am pleased to say that the run of 100 calendars has sold out and, after paying printing and postage costs we should make a small profit. The main lesson learned from this exercise is that next time we must use a lighter weight paper to reduce postage costs which were exorbitant. As about half of the calendars were sold outside Spain, this is an important consideration.

According to the latest information I have, this year the school year will start on February 1st. in Bolivia which is slightly earlier than usual. It also seems that prices have been skyrocketing over the past year with some items increasing by 83%, so we shall see just how much we can do this year without raising sponsorship fees.
