Food & fruit for primary schools in Latin America

I hope all is well with you. Thanks to your donations, our regular monthly donors, those getting involved in Charity Challenges this coming year and other fundraising events, the following is what we have planned for 2024 and how all your donations will make a huge difference to the communities where we work in Latin America.

The implementation of our sustainable income plans in each country will once again be one of our priorities this year with the majority of them agriculturally-based, hence more food for the children and their families.     

In Guatemala we plan to expand Plan Huerto (school vegetable gardens) which will provide quality food in the schools. We aim to purchase school materials for over one hundred primary school students who cannot afford the basics in spite of the government providing some items at the beginning of the school year so the little extra the families have can now be spent on food.

In Ecuador we will continue to fund cultural celebrations which always include food as well as help with monthly supplies.The purchase of cows in Plan Moo will carry on during 2024 as we strive to sustainably cover some of the project's core costs so we can help out with more one-off critical projects in the community. The milk generated from the cows adds to the daily diet of the families and the children.  

In Perú we will continue to provide daily fruit and gas for the meals the government sends the products for. Vegetables from our Plan Huerto will enhance the daily diet of the children with extra produce being shared with the families in their homes. We will also fund cultural celebrations during the year which includes food. Mothers will also help out in the garden in exchange for vegetables to take home.  

All the best for 2024 and thank you in advance for your continued support during it!

Cheers
