While the nursing and pre-med students worked in the temporary clinic, others helped with a major effort by Spark Ventures to gather profiles for all of the children at Hope Community School and Hope House Orphanage. 
North Park students worked with interpreters to get names, ages, family backgrounds, favorite foods and subjects from the children. Others took pictures of the children with their names using digital cameras.
The information is now being assembled into sponsorship profiles, which will be made available through Spark's website. The money that comes in from the sponsorships will help to cover the costs of running the school and feeding program.
"It was great to be in on the beginning of something that I know will last into the future. I feel like I was working on a project that will make a difference," explained one of the North Parkers.
