Jocotenango is a town in Guatemala with approximately 20,500 inhabitants and most of its people are fighters, however, this town has been invaded by a large number of gangs and organized crime, meaning that the danger to children and youth is constant.
The municipal government of Jocotenango and Sonidos Para La Vida made an alliance to create a different opportunity, where the members of this community can dedicate their time to music; that is why the Municipal School of Music is created, where Sonidos Para La Vida takes charge of teaching and at the same time donates the necessary instruments for the daily work of said school.
This project has already been created 6 years and each year it has an average attendance of 90 students of all ages.
Each time you provide support to Sonidos Para La Vida, you are also supporting these projects that have an incalculable benefit for entire communities.
Please, help us to continue working in Jocotenango and in other communities that in the same way need all the possible efforts to change the social reality that we live and transform it into a life full of hope and opportunities.
Let's keep making music !!!
