By Ava Berinstein, PhD | Director of Development
Thank you for supporting the Q’eqchi’ Association Xch’ool Ixim (Heart of Corn) and our campaign to support the Computer Lab and to provide computer technology classes to our secondary students at the “Instituto Maya Comunitario K’amolb’e” (IMaCK) in Nimlah’akok, Alta Verapaz, Guatemala.
On our very first Giving Tuesday online appeal for our secondary school Computer Lab:
While our students lack electricity in their homes and are from the most impoverished families in the area, they have an opportunity to learn how to use a computer and gain digital literacy, typing, and accounting skills.
Your support of this campaign is helping these students gain valuable vocational skills, providing incentives to graduate. Together, we are providing access to education and pathways for entrepreneurship. We are developing future community leaders who can shape their own futures and break the cycle of irregular migration.
On behalf of Xch’ool Ixim, thank you with all of our heart,
Ava
