Project Details
We empower 33 poor Mayan families in San Pedro la Laguna, Guatemala, with literacy and traditional art/crafts classes which help mothers work in tourism or gain income at home. Youth are assisted to attend public school or technical training to improve their job opportunities in their home pueblo, rather than emigrate or drop out of school to work at the same menial labor of their parents - thus continuing the cycle of poverty. Re-integrating cultural traditions promotes pride in their roots.
