To provide financial and physical assistance to the poor in Guatemala, especially to orphans and children whose families are unable to provide for them. In particular, the Organization provides funds for the operation of a children's home and school in Chimaltenango, Guatemala. There are 55 children in the Home and over 300 students attend the onsite school. The number of children in the home varies from time to time. In the years preceding 2016 the number was usually 80 or more. Recent Guatemalan law limits the number of children a children's home may have.
The Organization's funds are used to support the operation of a children's home and school in Chimaltenago, Guatemala. The home cares for over 55 children. Because they are older, and getting close to the age when they must leave the home, six of those children reside in a "transition home". The others reside in the home.
The Organization has only one Mission which is described in Explanation number 1. Part of that Mission is to support the operation of a school constructed on the Organization's property. The School has over 300 students. The school goes only to middle school. All of the age appropriate children who live at the Home attend the school. The other students come from the impoverished neighborhood that is located next to the Organization's property. The school has 23 teachers and is considered excellent.
The organization provided $6,160 as scholarships to impoverished children in the neighborhood of the Home to enable those children to attend the onsite school. Without the scholarships, they would have been unable to attend. The scholarships were based upon need. The organization incurred expenses for work teams and for materials for individuals who came to the home to do new construction, building repairs and programs for the children.
