The vision to build a Children’s Village is becoming a reality! The first two family homes will be completed in early 2012. Thank you for choosing to donate your money to help us make a brighter future for vulnerable children in Guatemala.

What does your contribution buy? 

To give you some perspective, here are some of the costs for building a home:
$30,000 is the cost of a completely finished and furnished family home
$3000 employs our workers for another month
$1000 builds and equips the kitchen in the family home
$500 is the cost of a roll of empty bags needed for a whole house
$100 buys us ten pieces of bamboo (10 metres long) used for the roof trusses
$75 will build a child’s bed
$50 buys ten fruit trees to plant outside the homes

Our promise to you as a Project Somos donor: 

-to spend your money responsibly
-to keep you updated on our progress
-to answer any of your questions or concerns
-to keep working on our vision to provide a brighter future for children in need
-to continue to work towards financial sustainability of the Village
