Dear Friends,
Thank you for being part of Wa’ik for believing and trusting in our work, and giving us the energy to continue.
We are pleased to share what we’ve been up to this second part of the year, and with that, special thank you to our active Board Members and Wa’ik family for improving the health and making nutritious food accessible to all.
World Food Day!
For 5th consecutive year, we’ve been part of the World Food Day campaign of #UniversalPlate. This year we supported two places:
Peaches, peaches and more peaches!
National Golf Championship with Wa’ik
Following our active participation with the caddies and alliance with Alta Vista Golf Club, we have been participating in the month-long National Golf Championship, with every weekend, delivering fruits and grains to the caddies and players. Up until the end of November, we delivered 500 bananas, apples, Guatemalan scones, and nutritional information about every food, so as they understand the importance of eating them for their health and game.
SALAZÓN 2024
And of course, the annual celebration of Salazon, where SAL celebrates it's anniversary and part of the revenue is donated to Wa'ik! Thank you to all the 3-day long chefs from Guatemala, more Central America and now South America, for being part of this great social impact feast! Thank you to everyone involved, especially Sal, 14 Grados, and our team!
Best Food friends!
Recently, the awards of Latin America 50 Best Restaurants, Best Chef, and Best Pizza took place. We are thrilled to see so many of our friends (and even Wa'ik Board Members) on the list! MASSIVE CONGRATULATIONS for this achievement, and all the effort, dedication and tasty creativity you put in. Here is a toast for many more collaborations together!! To all the chefs, we gave them as a thank you a peach made of wood (and real life peach seed) as a napkin holder with an organic peach-colored cotton napkin made by local artesans in Jocotenango.
