ABOUT SUE TILLOTSON AND JIM CUNNINGHAM

Sue and Jim have played music together for many years bringing a love of Celtic music and exciting instrumentation to their audiences. You will hear Sue on fiddle, whistle and vocals and Jim on guitar, bouzouki, cittern, Celtic harp and vocals.

ABOUT PROJECT CHACOCENTE

The featured service organization for the show is Project Chacocente, which began in January 2003, in response to the pleas of a high-school-aged youth delegation called the Mission of Peace.

“After visiting the vast, smoky wasteland of the Managua dump, the kids kept saying, ‘We have to do something,’” explains executive director Cheryl Avery. “At first, we tried to tell them how futile it would be to rescue people without the help of the government or a large NGO. But they insisted, and finally I stopped saying ‘But…’ and started asking ‘Why not?’”

While its primary goal is to transform the lives of these people who lived at the bottom of the social ladder, Project Chacocente’s secondary goal is to show that an NGO can successfully work with the poorest of the poor, and to share that model worldwide with other NGOs.
