In Weavers of Unity, the book opens with a heartfelt dedication:
“This book is dedicated to all the souls who embraced the vision projected half a century ago by the founders of FUNDAEC and who, over the years, have worked to turn that dream into reality. Their unwavering commitment and inspiring service nourished the soil from which the fruits of the institution have flourished. While some are mentioned in these pages, many others—whose faith, effort, and dedication were equally vital—remain unnamed. Without their devotion to the cause of development, the story woven in this book could never have been told.”
Building on this spirit, Weavers of Stories seeks to bring forward the voices and journeys of those whose names may not appear in Weavers of Unity, but whose contributions are no less profound. These are the stories of faith, effort, and perseverance—of men and women who, often quietly and unseen, have been essential threads in the tapestry of social development and transformation.
Their lives remind us that the progress of a community is not the result of a few visible leaders alone, but of the collective, tireless devotion of many, each weaving strength, wisdom, and service into the fabric of a better future.
