Overview
Mission
Our exempt purpose is to develop, implement and support programs for disadvantaged youth that will provide them with educational support and environmentally sustainable economic opportunities, focusing initially on Guatemala.
What it reported doing in 2025
Garden of Hope Learning Garden (GoH): Located in El Hato, this program provides families with opportunities to enjoy a safe, green space while at the same time learning how to grow vegetables in an environmentally sustainable way. This is accomplished by providing workshops, cooking classes, youth activities and community days. Since 2020, we have been running a program to teach vegan cooking - an inexpensive way for families to eat healthy, nutritious meals with minimal environmental impact. We helped the local public elementary school start a school vegetable garden and continue to support it. We are currently helping community members start their own vegetable gardens. Every year we also run a vacation camp in which children can stay active during six weeks of Guatemala's long end-of-year break while at the same time participating in educational activities, with an emphasis on nutrition and caring for the environment, animals and other people.
