Women's empowerment programming has begun in our new partner community of Xiquin Juyú, Tecpán. These women are working with staff from our sister organization in Guatemala, ABPD, to learn about their rights, build their self esteem, and develop their leadership skills.

By next year, women from the community will be leading this program themselves, with some guidance. And after two years, they'll be ready to independently carry the development work we began together into the future. ... See MoreSee Less

Congratulations to the five communities that recently graduated from our integrated program! We're so proud of our partners in Xeabaj, San Lucas, Chiraxaj, Vista Hermosa, and San Vicente for all they've accomplished.

With support from ALDEA, our partners at Asociaión Bpd in Guatemala, and our generous donors, they created healthier home environments through potable water systems, vented stoves, gray water filters, and sanitary latrines; completed trainings in nutrition, empowerment, agriculture, and family planning; and took over leadership of these development initiatives in their communities going forward. In our two years of partnership, they were able to reduce the average rate of chronic malnutrition among children under two from 64% in July 2017 to 48% now.

Thank you to our donors for making these programs possible, to the ABPD staff for implementing them, and to these families for all their hard work! We hope you enjoy these photos highlighting some of their achievements. (Photos by Javier Borrayo.) ... See MoreSee Less

We provide this first round of seeds at no cost, and then after their first harvest families start contributing until they're able to sustain the gardens on their own. Fresh produce from family gardens is an important part of our efforts to improve nutrition, especially for children and pregnant women. ... See MoreSee Less
