• Donations have provided 399 beds with mattresses, sheets, pillows and blankets.
• Thousands of pounds of new and used clothing and shoes have been distributed thanks to the generous support of our visitors and supporters. Many adults and children have received food and medicine.
• From Houses to Homes continues to help Asociacion Cambiando Vidas (Changing Lives), a school in Pastores, Guatemala. We funded the construction of their new school and continue to fund part of their operating expenses. The teaching methods have been adopted from the most forward-thinking educators of North America. Class numbers are small to provide a high level of personal attention to every child. Parents must participate in the education of their children, and attend weekly classes to learn good parenting skills.
