We are so thrilled to tell you that with your support, we have successfully saved our San Jorge Feeding Center!
Did you know Guatemala has the highest rate of malnutrition in the western hemisphere? In villages like San Jorge, Guatemala, it can be 80% and even higher. Because of you, we are one step closer to changing this.
Now, we will not only be able to help provide the elderly and children in critical need of San Jorge with daily nutritional support; we can expand our programs to include after-school tutoring, medical clinics and much more in the community. While we continue to work out the specifics, we encourage you to follow us on Facebook and sign up for our newsletter if you haven't already so you can stay abreast of all updates.
If you ever wondered what life might be like for these vulnerable populations who live well below the poverty line in Guatemala, sign up for our new Live Below the Line Challenge that starts in just two weeks. By signing up, you can make even more of a difference by translating awareness into impact and raise funds to support our Elderly Care & Kids in Critical Need Programs.
Once again, we want to thank you for your support and we are so excited to welcome you to our global community of supporters!
