Toys bring joy in the Highlands of Guatemala!

Toys bring joy in the highlands of Guatemala!!! There were so many happy children yesterday receiving toys.

If you sent toys, I hope you can see a child receiving your toy and all the joy it brings to them.

These toys were distributed yesterday to sponsored students and their siblings.

We try to make sure that every sponsored student and their siblings will receive a toy.

We have given toys to all the children in our three pre-schools, Tierra Linda, Panajachel and San Jorge.

We have distributed toys to all the children in the women's groups in San Jorge, that is over 400 children in each group.

We have given toys to all the children in Tierra Linda.......approximately 600 toys.

We have sent 40 toys to a small Christmas party in Santa Cruz la Laguna.

We have given out toys to all the children in the Casa Hogar Feliz orphanage.

Brought extra toys to the two parties in El Barranco and Chaquija that was hosted by Marlene and Vanessa.

We have given over 30 toys to a special needs group for the children to celebrate Christmas.


We have helped Santa Claus and given him a 100 small toys to distribute at a Christmas party in Panajachel.

Today we have students and their siblings coming from Panabaj and Chuk Muk.

There will be lots more toys to be given to children, thanks to all the people who collected , packed and paid for toys to be shipped here.

There are not enough words to thank you , so I hope the smiles on these children's faces will show you how much your efforts were appreciated!
