Send 3 Indigenous Women to College in Guatemala

All of us at Para Adelante are very humbled and grateful to be part of the group of organizations supported by GlobalGiving and all its supporters. We would like to thank everyone who has supported and those who continue to support us and the women.

We continue to be proud of our ladies as they push through their studies and education. We had a call with Dolores and her family to celebrate her success in her final oral presentation and exams. Despite everything she struggled with, she did a great job. Her faculty made sure to remind her of how far she had come and how much she overcame during the end of her degree program. She is now working on an internship and applying for graduation to then pursue her career in Social Work and help others who have had difficult starts in life. We are so proud of the progress she has made.

The ladies continue to tell us how grateful they are the organization and all the donors who help provide this opportunity for them to better their lives and those of their families and communities. These women continue to embody the Para Adelante spirit and continue to inspire us. With that inspiration, we are still staying busy building our online store where we sell a variety of beautiful, one of kind accessories handmade by women in Guatemala with 100% of the net profits going to fund the scholarships. These items can be found on our website (http://paraadelante.org/shop/) with more inventory to be posted and we hope to launch a Shopify store to reach even more people and fund more scholarships to help more women and their families.

You can find more updates on all the women by following our social media pages below.
