When the Guatemala Housing Alliance (GHA) began working around Lake Atitlan in 2011, our focus was on the construction of decent homes as well as in enabling disadvantaged children to attend school. Over the years, as safe and affordable housing became more available, GHA turned more of its attention and resources to making a quality education accessible to more Mayan children. Out of this transition came a name change:
GHA has become the Mayan Education and Support Alliance (MESA)
While we have shifted our resources to focus increasingly on education and women's empowerment, we continue our construction efforts by replacing mud floors with safe and sanitary concrete slabs and by replacing indoor open fire pits with wood conserving, vented stoves.
We thank you for your continuing support..
