    Descripción

    We are a non profit organization that provides pathways of hope for communities in Guatemala - physically and educationally.
    We have built houses, installed sinks, give out food for the one's in need, we provide education opportunities for children and youth.

    We are located in a small village about 1.5 hr south of Antigua Guatemala and 30 min north of Monterrico Guatemala. *FYI if you are traveling from Antigua Guatemala to El Tunco El Salvador we are right in the middle along CA-2.*

    We recently moved from town to a 5-acre rural property with 60 mango trees and others - and need help in maintaining the property.
    Throughout the weeks, we have various small construction, yard cleanup and craft projects going on.

    On Wednesdays we do different community outreaches to support and uplift the local area.
    We also have a sponsorship program for kids & youth - where we offer them the opportunity to receive private schooling. They come to our project on Fridays where we provide English lessons and do an activity with them.

    Our staff are local Guatemalans while I myself am from the States and my wife is from Switzerland. We are a Christian faith- based project. However, we have had volunteers from over 17 countries and received individuals from all paths of life! Everyone is welcome here! Join the team!

  • Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

    Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

    We offer a safe and peaceful environment away from tourism and in a rural area. Being in an area where not many people speak English, you will have to use Spanish when going shopping or speaking with locals. We are very immersed in this community, so if there are any activities going on (local soccer game, cultural community events, birthday parties, etc.) we will let you know - so you can be part of it and experience the culture here!
