This is one of Guatemala´s most efficient projects, dedicated to children.
Located in San Felipe, a small village just next to Antigua Guatemala, is now celebrating it´s 20 years.
They operate several areas:
Dreamer Center: with a school for children and with special classes for mothers; Medical, Dental & Psychology Clinics; Legal aid, Domestic Violence & Social Work offices; Library and Chapel, and even community rooms and with weekly distribution of food.
Casa Jackson: an Emergency Recovery Center for children and infants with extreme malnutrition or malnourished problems.
Homeless Shelter: for indigents, with meals, a place to sleep, medical care and people with love to say "I care" to drunks, junkies or anybody sleeping in the streets.
Scheel Center: a Technical School for local children and teenagers, where not only students receive 2 meals a day (for some, the only food they get), they also get basic and technical education, to help them work in many different areas, earning an income for their families.
Coming here and working as a volunteer, will really make a difference in your own life, and of course, many children that have a hard life and immense lack of nutrition, education and joy.
If you would like to help this project with a donation or going there in person as a volunteer, please contact us.
