Today we battle poverty with joy, color, music, laughter, and hope!
From sunrise to sunset, Love Light & Melody joins hands with friends, neighbors, and nonprofit organizations for a full day in Managua's trash dump community... celebrating and sharing life through music, painting, dancing, kites, and soccer games.
When entering what appears to be a war-zone, it seems appropriate to enter with proper armor and protection. Love Light & Melody has learned however, that sometimes the most powerful weapons of protection are also the most surprising! This is most certainly the case during Dia de Luz (Day of Light). Every year, a flood of people, music, and kites invaded the trash dump in Managua, Nicaragua, where nearly 1,500 people live, work, and make their homes. This event was created to break down emotional, physical, and cultural barriers, while reawakening the dreams, imagination, and hope of the people who live there.
