Description

We are planning our 12th annual event For Guatemala...An Evening of Hope 2024, on April 27th, 2024. Our event will include an online silent auction where guests can bid on unique and fun products and experiences.

Our online auction is seen by approximately 6000 people on the popular Bidding for Good platform across the United States and Canada and we need donations of items, gift cards, experiences, services, etc. to not only promote the items but to promote the businesses who support our important work.

Our annual fundraiser brings in the much-needed funds so we may continue to empower Guatemalan children, families, and communities to reach their full potential:
The loving and nurturing childrenĀ“s home, El Amor de Patricia, a home for abandoned, abused, and neglected children in San Lucas.

Colegio El Amor de Patricia, an English Immersion school/community center in Yalu which educates children as well as adults.

The community partnership with the village of Yalu where we assess the needs of individual families and assist them in creating a functional environment, help keep their children in school, and provide nutritional and homework support.

The Bunk Bed Project provides beds to families in need, who otherwise sleep on twigs, cinder blocks, or nothing at all. all. We provide bunk beds for children and standard-sized beds for the elderly.
