Guatemalan Gifts For Special Occasions

Gifts of a donation in someone's name are great for birthdays and other special occasions. Your gift helps start and support a cycle of caring, sharing and learning that spreads from family to family, up and down the mountainsides. The projects your donation supports are ones of sustainability, health, education - things that will continue on into the future and create a wave of change throughout the entire community. Give a Gift That Makes a Difference We've provided several choices for you - or you can make a donation in an amount that's comfortable for you. We'll send a gift card to your honoree, with your personalized message that you designate on the checkout page of our secure donation page. Gift of Hope Our most popular option - supporting a teen with a scholarship. In this area of Guatemala, only 2% of teenagers are in high school even though education is the most important factor in achievement, health, and general living standards. One year of Basico (middle school) $80 One year of Diversificado (high school) $300 You can also make a general scholarship donation in other amounts Give a Gift of Hope Gift of Literacy Books and literacy - essential for education. Early literacy skills are proven indicators of academic success; but also - literacy must continue to be a part of one's life or it disappears. Putting books into the hands of both parents and children helps them all. Picture Book $25 Textbook $35 Set of books $100 Give a Gift of Literacy Gift of Community Support the dream of a community library that will serve 5,000 residents in this area, where children can do their homework, everyone can work on computers, committees can hold meetings, and the entire community can enjoy their celebrations.
