Education for 400 children in Guatemala

I hope all is well with you. To celebrate Giving Tuesday today all donations up to £2,000/$2,500 will be partially matched with a share of a $1.2 million pot which is a fantastic opportunity for the projects. Last year this amounted to a 25% matching on all donations.

All funds raised today as part of this year's Appeal will be put towards our local teachers’ salaries, scholarships, classroom materials and sustainable plans.

Last year's Appeal, launched in September 2022, raised an incredible £21,000/$26,000 towards the £85,000/$106,000 we spent on The Phoenix Projects in Latin America over the following twelve months. As you can see clearly we were able to accomplish one quarter of our work in Latin America thanks to your generous support to the Appeal, including the annual Giving Tuesday partial matching. 

To take advantage of the partial matching today please donate to this page and thank you so much in advance.

It has been a great month on the projects with graduations in Guatemala. Some of our college scholarship students celebrated their graduation in Business Administration early in November. More ceremonies are due at the end of the month. One of the successes of the scholarship programme is seeing so many more girls staying in education past primary school and going on to graduate from both secondary school and then college.

Independence Day was celebrated with various festivities and cultural events at the lake. All our secondary school and college scholarship students played a large part in the day’s events having spent the previous day planting trees.

Have a great December and thank you so much in advance for anything you can donate today to the Appeal so we can receive the Giving Tuesday matching.

Cheers
