In Guatemala, school may be labeled as “free,” but for thousands of families, the true cost of education is simply out of reach. Parents must pay for uniforms, school supplies, books, shoes, transportation, and daily meals. For families struggling to survive on very limited income, these expenses make it impossible to keep their children in school.

When education becomes unaffordable, children are often forced to leave the classroom and enter the workforce far too young. Dreams are put on hold, and a cycle of poverty continues — not because families don’t value education, but because they lack the resources to access it.

Sponsoring a child changes this story.

Your sponsorship removes the barriers that keep a child out of school and replaces them with opportunity, hope, and dignity. It allows a child to learn, grow, and imagine a future filled with possibilities. The impact reaches far beyond one student — it strengthens families and helps uplift entire communities.

Each sponsored child receives a backpack, school supplies, new school shoes and gym shoes, and other essential items needed to attend school prepared and confident.

✨ You can be the reason a child stays in school.
