Nineteen 6th graders just graduated! We are so proud of them and all the hard work they’ve put in to reach this milestone. Join us in wishing them a great big “FELICIDADES!” (“CONGRATULATIONS!”)

To our faithful donors, thank you for your support of students like these 6th graders. Your generosity opens doors for them each and every year. Education is one of the greatest gifts we could ever give, and you make it possible for thousands of children worldwide to learn. Thank you!

Click through the photos below to see what the students at Mano Amiga Guatemala have been up to so far this school year!

Our goal is to have the future Mano Amiga Guatemala including:

• Dedicated school facility
• Large green space for the students
• Capacity to serve students from Pre-K through high school.
• Capacity to serve 800 students.

In addition to creating an environment for the students, it is necessary for them to be able to attend school, which can only be made possible when donors like you make this possible. Your support today even for scholarships helps end the cycle of poverty for these children. Take action now.
