For Juana, life in rural Guatemala had always been hard. She was forced to drop out of school at a young age to work as a maid to help her family. Like many who were born into poverty, she didn’t see an end in sight.
Today, thanks to the gift of a flock of chicks (from someone like you!) and lots of hard work, Juana runs a successful business selling chickens and eggs. Her family is thriving, and she is also passing on her knowledge to other mothers so they can succeed too!
Your note will be printed and hand-delivered to families in Guatemala. A woman like Juana could receive your note and feel so special that you took the time to support and encourage her.
In a time when we are increasingly isolated, your words of encouragement serve as a second gift — a gift they often display proudly in their homes ... a reminder that you care. It gives them so much strength to continue working hard on their journey from poverty to self-reliance to know that someone like you has faith in their ability to succeed.
