About the Cause

Posted by Bethel Student Center in Guatemala on 03/17/2026

Most of the families in the CDI (Children Development Center) work in agriculture. Some are employed by others, while others farm independently, all with the goal of generating income to meet their families' needs. That's why we want to acquire agricultural tools to improve the productivity and quality of life of local farmers. We want to acquire various tools so that the families have their work tools readily available and can generate more income. The tools we plan to donate to the 15 families are: 15 hoes, 15 sprayers, 15 machetes, 15 wheelbarrows, and 15 rakes. They will use these tools for fieldwork to increase agricultural productivity, fostering collaboration between farmers and the community. These tools will be given to the caregivers of the participants in the program. To select the 15 families, a socioeconomic questionnaire will be administered to determine which families are in need. Families with limited resources who are actively engaged in agriculture will be chosen to benefit from this donation.

How the church will sustain the Cause

By providing the tools to families, they will be able to plant crops, and when the time comes to cultivate, people will be able to buy new tools when the ones they were given are no longer in good condition, in order to continue generating income in their homes.
