Providing sustainable access to safe drinking water
In rural Guatemala, millions lack access to clean drinking water, leading to waterborne illnesses that particularly affect children. Many families spend hours daily collecting water from contaminated sources.
We implement comprehensive water solutions including:
$35 buys a water filter for a family and provides clean water for more than 10 years
Buy a Water Filter PackageBreaking the cycle of poverty through quality education opportunities
In rural Guatemala, many children lack access to quality education due to poverty, distance from schools, and the need to work to support their families. Without education, children remain trapped in cycles of poverty that span generations.
We provide comprehensive educational support including:
$20/month sponsors an elementary student's education
Sponsor Elementary Education$35/month sponsors a high school student's education
Sponsor High School Education$200/year provides a full scholarship (Feb-Nov)
Buy Annual ScholarshipEven $15-25/month makes a meaningful difference in helping children continue their education
Restoring sight and hope to families across Guatemala
In rural Guatemala, many families lack access to basic vision care and cannot afford prescription glasses. Poor vision significantly impacts children's ability to learn in school and adults' capacity to work and provide for their families.
We provide glasses to children and adults in need.
