Education for 400 children in Guatemala

I hope all is well with you. To give us a huge boost this week (Monday 4^th to Friday 8^th April) GlobalGiving will be 50% matching all individual donations to this page of up to $50 which is a fantastic opportunity for the projects as we aim to recover from the past two years and build towards a better sustainable future. If you can it would be fantastic if you could donate this week and your donation will go even further.

With 2022 now three months old it is already very different to the previous two years with all the students back in the classroom finally. We are aiming to maintain all the classrooms secure for daily teaching with cleaning products available. Looking ahead donations permitting, whilst continuing to cover our daily costs of the projects, we aim to make a concerted effort to implement family sustainable income plans with small enterprises over the coming months. Thanks to your continued support we have managed to keep the projects going through these hard times and once again, with your donations, we hope to be in a position to move forwards with confidence – thank you!

In Guatemala our one hundred secondary, college and University scholarship students are finally back in the classroom after two years. Many are mature students with serious underlying health conditions who couldn’t continue studying without the scholarships.

Plans are underway to build a bigger space for our Plan Costura sewing project for single mothers with more mothers entering the programme as the income earned helps them with any extra costs for their children in primary school, like textbooks. We are now helping to cover education from primary school to University, which was our original aim.

All the best for April and thank you in advance for your continued support.

Cheers
