In the not too distant future the plan is to travel the Amazon River
    stopping at villages and give what we have to offer to the native people of
    the Amazon and learn all that can be learned for use to help others. Our big
    picture is to bring all people from all the different cultures together helping
    all people.


    Melanie and Gil were brought together for the great Love they have for
    each other, and their goals that parallel from with in their Hearts, they
    stand and work as one.  Totally dedicated to their family and this
    organization…..

    Melanie and Gil are giving and teaching about North American Herbs and
    Chinese Herbal Medicine and will learn about Herbal Medicine from The
    Central and South America, Shaman, and the People with the knowledge of
    Herbal Medicine.
               We will build clinics, set up schools, teach what we can, learn what we
can, find the information which is lacking and try to fill that void.

Most of the problems suffering people face stem from lack of food, poor or no
hygienic sanitation and no safe water to drink.  We will resolve this intolerable
problem that millions of people live with every day.  The more like minded people
we can get together to help, the sooner 200 children don't have to die
unnecessarily every minute of every day.


In short; we plan to heal the sick, feed the hungry, help the needy and educate
so we all can survive and thrive in this broken but beautiful world.
























         On the following pages is the updated journey of Gil and Melanie, the
    struggles that are encountered and the joy and satisfaction that is given
    and received. Pictures will be included.
    The administration is simple, Melanie and Gil along with those that choose
    to volunteer. They want this to be very simple for that also is the way of
    their lives together.  

        
THE PLAN
How Earth Child is Funded
Bariloche Argentina
September 2007
We will begin this part of our journey in Nicaragua.  We plan to branch out into bordering
countries of Central America then work our way down to South America.
We have always helped people in one way or another through out our lives.  But this is
our first time on a large scale.  We are just getting our feet wet soon to be swimming
unfamiliar waters.  We will bring people together in our plight and we will succeed in
saving the world one being at a time.

                                 2008
Soon Melanie and Gil Will be visiting Belize, Where there are Herbal Medicine
plants being transplanted from the rain forest, as to preserve those  plants that
are being depleted, by over use and land clearing.
At the moment we are living and working in St. Augustine, Florida, to re-coop
our funds.

   We as a family are doing all we can to be back in Argentina, where we will be
on a permanent basis.. Income is now so difficult to come by and  hold onto.
With our travels and searching for places to set up and for fill our dreams, we
have depleted our own personal savings, Being the optimist that I am this will
turn around for the powers that are, are behind us. It will just take time. With
the economy the way it is and so many unemployed in this country, I have gone
back to writing music and trying to sell it Via
I have a good friend who is a member, I decided to join. I even started to play
Florida Lotto. We have both cleaned houses and even laid floor tile. I m in the
process of re-working and tiling a shower stall. There is a possibility of building
kitchen cabinets for my mother-in-law's next door neighbor. My Mother-in-law,
who is vice president of ECF, is a very great person, I have appreciated all she
does and has done.. I know it will turn around soon for us..Just need to focus on
the Big Picture. No Worry, just anxious. Indigo now 3years is the greatest. He
sure knows how to bring me up and that is just his being....G
