The Future
While the funds generated by this harvest cannot replace the financial support we receive from the many generous donors in North America, they will support the ongoing work in the schools and medical clinic. We strive to please the Lord with our service to His children in Guatemala and invite you to partner with us in the continued growth of our sustainability initiatives. Help with the ongoing infrastructure improvements as we expand our agri sustainability program.
