Food & fruit for primary schools in Latin America

With 2020 well into it’s second month we want to share with you our plans for the coming year.

Depending on donations we plan to implement more food programs accross all our schools in Honduras, Perú, Ecuador and Guatemala. In Ecuador we have started Plan Pollos (chickens) which will supplement the lunches as well as Plan Huertos (vegetable gardens). In Perú we currently have a daily fruit program and pay for the gas for the school meals. This year we would like to add vegetables to the meals. In both Guatemala and Honduras we will be introducing vegetable gardens. As ever we will continue with celebrations throughout the year which includes a filling meal for the children. Funds permitting we can expand the diet of all the children.   

Thank you so much to everyone who has donated so far to our 2020 Appeal. We are just $3,500 and 250 trees short of our target of 10% of our budget for 2020 so if you still wanted to donate, please do so by donating to this page.

The teams are building for our Charity Challenges in Perú and Ecuador in May and June 2020. Whilst our Inca Trail challenge is now full we will be opening up a tandem group via Salkantay to reach Machu Picchu on the same day. For those of you wondering what to do in 2021, we will be taking on one of our hardest challenges yet, Cotopaxi Volcano in Ecuador (which includes some glacier training!) in February and also the Inca Trail once again in May. Please do contact us by following the link to the Challenges below if you want to get involved in any of these events in 2020 or 2021 and help us reach our goals for the decade.

Have a great February and we will keep you updated in a couple of months!

Cheers
