MayaWorks Hand Up Challenge is a Big Success



Because of its generous donors, MayaWorks raised more than $30,000 in its Hand Up Challenge. That's way above our $20,000 goal! We are very grateful for the many women and men who believe that the economic development of communities begins with the development of its women. We could not do our work without your support.

Donations help MayaWorks sustain tutoring centers in its artisan communities, fund scholarships, pay for artisan training and provide microloans so that women can start small businesses. These are all vital programs that address the cycle of poverty. It is our goal that our women become economically independent and their children have a brighter future.

Thank you for standing with us as we develop strong communities in the central highlands of Guatemala.
