INAUGURATION OF THE URBAN SCHOOL PROJECTSilent YouTube video with captions....3:30 minutes long

The GUATEMALAN FOUNDATION   
Will continue until August 19, 2017 when our
GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY  
will be complete.

TO MAKE THIS POSSIBLE, WE WILL DO THE FOLLOWING:
1.  CONTINUE  SUPPORTING THE "ARIEL & INES ANDERSEN" CHULUC VILLAGE SCHOOL in the Patzicia  area, by hiring Mario as the teacher  paying him a wage of $300/mo. as we did last year.  Thus he will be able to support his family, and finish his Law studies in the afternoons and weekends.

2.  CONTINUE PROJECTS IN THE ALTA VERAPAZ AREA with Aura playing a more direct role, especially with her designated Project helping the community that has evolved  in and around the garbage dump in the Coban area, and, with scholarship help, be able to finish her degree.

3.  We hope and pray we will also have enough funds to one more time have the School Supplies Project in January for at least all the children in the rural schools of Santa Cruz Verapaz, as well as continue with as many other aid projects as funds will permit.

YouTube video: INAUGURATION of the Project at the "URBAN SCHOOL"

URGENT ANNOUNCEMENT BELOW..scroll down

September 9, 2016 
Silent YouTube video with captions....3:30 minutes long


IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
We have just learned that our two scholarship students, to earn their degrees, will have to have our help during most of the 2017 school year.  The are: 

Mario de la Cruz, our Patzicia Regional Director &  Law School student, 
&  
Aura Andersen, Masters Degree  Social Work student,  in the Coban area.

To not fail them the GUATEMALAN FOUNDATION 
will continue until August 19, 2017 when our
GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY  will be complete.

TO MAKE THIS POSSIBLE, WE WILL DO THE FOLLOWING:
1.  CONTINUE  SUPPORTING THE "ARIEL & INES ANDERSEN" CHULUC VILLAGE SCHOOL in the Patzicia area, by hiring Mario as the teacher and paying him a wage of $300/mo. as we did last year.  Thus he will be able to support his family, and finish his studies in the afternoons and weekends.

2.  CONTINUE PROJECTS IN THE ALTA VERAPAZ AREA with Aura playing a more direct role, especially with her designated Project helping the community that has evolved  in and around the garbage dump in the Coban area, and, with scholarship help, be able to finish her degree.

NEEDED:
Continual help with our donations.  
We know that a few donors have given what they considered their last large donations this year.  We hope that even they will still help some, and have reason to believe that most of us will continue with what we can donate through August 2017 when legally the Foundation will end.

The Foundation will now do a promotion advising all of the YouTube video above, and send a PLEDGE FORM that we hope all will return to us indicating how much support we can expect from each donor during 2017 and thus be able to make promises of support for our 2017 projects in Guatemala.   


I'll insert an image of it above that you can  copy, fill out and send to:
