Our Commitment to Guatemala Volcano Relief

We are so excited to welcome two new members to ou

We are so excited to welcome two new members to our Education team. Cara Hunn (Upper Elementary) and Michelle Gomez (Lower Elementary) will be instrumental in taking our teacher sponsorship/development program to the next level.

Both teachers are bilingual, experienced, and passionate about creating stronger communities in Guatemala. It's said you should surround yourself with people much smarter than you, and our education team with Ali, Carita, and Miche is certainly that. We can't wait to see how their support will translate to real educational results in Guatemala! - Ty

Before we turn our full attention to a new school

Before we turn our full attention to a new school year starting next month, we want to take one look back at the impact YOU helped make in 2020.
.
.
It was a year that started off with a joyful pizza party during a sponsor visit and was soon turned upside down with the rest of the world by the pandemic. But thanks to your generosity and our partners (@eftcfoundation & @provee_nonprofit), we were able to keep our promise to create education + employment opportunities in Guatemala. Sponsorships were turned to virtual learning, funds were shifted to relief efforts, and in the midst of an extremely difficult time, a small business (@breadbrosgt) grew and 2 new ones were created. This wouldn’t be possible without you. To read more about your impact, hit our bio link + BLOG.
.

Thank you for all you do to create opportunities in Guatemala. 2021 is going to be HUGE!

Teachers in our sponsorship program are preparing

Teachers in our sponsorship program are preparing to kick off the 2021 school year while around the world, both educators and students continue to face the difficult task of remote learning.
.
.
In Guatemala, the majority of the students do not have internet/technology access so Project Apoyo and the teachers of Chicamen are focused on making learning from home as meaningful as possible.
.
.
Because of the generosity of these teachers' sponsors, they now have access to an online program with tons of new resources, a printer for getting books/worksheets into the hands of students, and 1-1 support with a trained teacher mentor. This is your giving in action!
