Why Primera Joya Needs You

Primera Joya, a rural community in Guatemala, is home to 94 families living in extreme poverty. Over 90% of residents survive on less than $1.90 a day, facing challenges like limited education, chronic malnutrition, and poor access to clean water and healthcare.

With your support, the Primera Joya Sustainable Community Development (SCD) Phase I will address these issues holistically. By fostering education, improving food security, promoting sanitation, and empowering community leadership, this project will pave the way for sustainable growth.

Your donation today will:

- Empower 470 individuals with skills and resources. Implement family gardens and nutritional programs.
- Provide access to clean water and sanitation.
- Strengthen community leadership for long-term self-sufficiency.

Meet Gloria and Her Family

Gloria and her family are among the 94 families benefiting from this project. Previously, they lived in unsafe conditions with limited opportunities. Thanks to support from Food For The Poor and Caritas Arquidiocesana, they now have a safe home and better access to basic necessities.

Gloria dreams of a better future for her children, Marvin and Estefani. While Marvin works to support his family, he hopes to gain skills that will allow him to secure stable employment. Your donation can make dreams like Marvin’s a reality.
