Sounds for Life maintains the priority of fostering the development of musical skills in children in Guatemala.
Guatemala is a country full of contrasts, of great opportunities, but also of many limitations for those born in conditions of poverty, family disintegration, violence, or gangs. For all this, we constantly work to make things a little easier for children who live in situations of risk,and we do it through music.
We continue to deliver musical instruments to children who have an interest in music, because we know all the benefits it will bring in their lives and personal development. We recently gave an electroacoustic guitar to an exceptionally talented boy who manages to bring joy into his life with a guitar in his hands. He lives in a reality where his father fights cancer, so his mother and his three brothers, try to live each day to the fullest and always fighting to fulfill their goals and achieve their dreams, knowing that at any moment their life can change radically.
When you collaborate with Sounds for Life, you are investing resources in children like our little fighter and music lover. In Guatemala there are thousands and thousands of cases like this, and we want to help to make their lives easier and, at the same time, provide them with the development of skills that contribute to having a better future.
We appreciate all your help and hope to continue counting on it to reach all these children who need it so much.
