Hundreds of people in poverty stricken rural Nicaragua will soon have  new homes thanks to the generosity of the National Avenue Christian Church in Springfield.

Today, the church is presenting a check for $25,000 to the Rainbow Network in the church's fellowship gallery on South National Avenue at 10 a.m.

The first installment of a $100,000 gift.

The donation initiates the construction phases of a project that will provide safe, secure homes for 25 poverty-stricken families living in a rural village.

Construction of the homes is slated to be finished in March of next year.
