When Tim Kelly and four of his close friends traveled to Nicaragua they were exposed to the beauty, both natural and cultural, of Nicaragua. They also saw just how much the country was in need. Out of both the beauty and the need grew Operation Nica.

Since that first trip, Tim, who is also the owner of Bring It Promotions volleyball management company, and his friends have purchased three different properties along the Pacific Coastline. They own a lot in Guacalito (an hour north of San Juan del Sur), a condo in Villas de Palermo in San Juan del Sur, as well as 117 acres in the Carrizal (just south of San Juan del Sur).

In hopes of creating a synergy between Nicaragua and the volleyball world of Bring It Promotions, Tim ran a volleyball tour in Nicaragua in 2005. These two junior teams brought bags and bags of equipment to donate and the tour was a huge success.

Since then Operation Nica has become each and everyone of the people involved in the tours, community service projects, or even just friends who are willing to bring their time and/or money to Nicaragua.

The future of Operation Nica, whatever that may be, is very exciting. Our goals are to continue bringing people to Nicaragua that are willing to donate their time and/or money as well as continue to build relationships that will open doors to more community service projects in and around the community of San Juan del Sur and Nicaragua.
