The governor of Matagalpa, Nicaragua has been involved and has helped Sister Rebecca's projects. One event that the governor supported was the 5K run. Sister Rebecca does have interaction and contact with the governor, in fact she decided to have a 5k run to help  raise money and awareness in the community and she received help and support from the governor. Sister Rebecca told us that the run was held around the same time that NDNU had its NicaArgo 5k run. I am proud to have been  a part of that run. The governor supported this, we were told that the governor personally ensured that the streets were cleared to make way for the runners.This act just this shows that there is support for the disabled and leads to even more acceptance from the community. In this way the governor has authority to make an impact on Sister Rebecca's projects.
