About Guatemala

Guatemala’s name comes from an ancient Nahuatl Aztec word meaning “land of many trees.” This Central American country is rich in Indigenous heritage and stunning landscapes. Yet many communities face challenges such as poverty, malnutrition, and limited access to education.

Once again, I am thrilled to share with you the progress of our cause. Our hearts are filled with joy to see how God works on behalf of His greatest treasure: the children. May God reward you for all your love and support for our little ones, great heroes. Potential leaders. As I mentioned in the previous update, we were just days away from beginning the construction of a new and better warehouse for our children. Yesterday, Don Gilberto began the construction work. It is possible that in a week I will share with you the completion and inauguration of the warehouse. For our part, we continue working; this week we will be making one more sale to complete the payment for the labor.
