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.

Clean and Safe Cooking Equipment

We feel very happy and blessed for the opportunity we were given to carry out this project. The purchase of a complete industrial stove was made, and this stove is already proving to be a great blessing in the lives of each of the participants and volunteers. May God bless you all who made this project possible.
