Compassion Fruit Society is a Registered Canadian Charity
based in Vancouver, British Columbia. Charitable Number
86332 6468 RR0001
Our vision is to establish the Project Somos Children's Village
in Guatemala, where orphaned and abandoned children will
grow up educated, healthy and loved within a family. Phase 1
was to establish ourselves as an Non-Profit Organization and
generate awareness. Phase 2 is to purchase the land and
dwellings. Phase 3 is to construct the Village. And finally,
during Phase 4 we will be working towards establishing small
businesses which will ensure the Project’s long-term financial
sustainability.
We are currently in Phase 2 and have our sights set on
purchasing the most incredible piece of land. It is 135 acres
(upon which to build the village where each child can play
happily in a safe and beautiful environment). It has a 5000
square foot meeting hall (where each child will be educated so
that they can be a contributing member of society when they
grow up). It has a fresh water spring yielding 100 gallons a
minute and acres of fertile soil for growing fruit and
vegetables (which not only means that each child will receive
a nutritious and healthy diet but it also means the village will
be self-sustaining). The property also has a nine bedroom
guesthouse where we will be able to host volunteers.
It takes a village to raise a child, and a community to build a
village. Become part of our community and your financial
support will make this visionary village happen. On behalf of
the Board of Directors of Compassion Fruit Society, we thank
you for your support.
