Dear Friend,

I am asking activist-donors like you to play a vital role in building an agroecology and political formation school in Guatemala. *Will you step up to the plate? [ [link removed] ]*

The school will teach Indigenous Peoples and smallholder farmers agricultural methods that are in harmony with nature to restore damaged lands and soils, and will educate them on methods to organize, protect and feed their communities. But it can only succeed if it has the necessary infrastructure and funding to continue operating.

We are crowdsourcing the money needed to make a grant and need to raise $7,000 by October 1 to meet our goal. *Your gift today will go toward: [ [link removed] ]*
* Building *classrooms* and infrastructure
* Drilling *water wells*
* Installing *solar panels* for electricity and lighting, as well as security systems
* *Staffing* the school
* Constructing the *women's dormitory*

*This project can only be funded if dedicated activists like you step up to the plate. [ [link removed] ]* Any donation you can make will have a huge impact for years to come as Indigenous People and smallholder farmers share their knowledge gained at the school with their communities to build powerful grassroots movements.

We need to make the grant by October 1, so *please make your donation today [ [link removed] ]*. Thank you for your generosity!

In solidarity,

Chung-Wha Hong
Executive Director


P.S. As the saying goes, "Many hands make light work," which is why we need *your gift of $25, $50, $100 or more today [ [link removed] ]*. Together we can fund this important work.
