Feed, Clothe, Shelter, Heal

Growing Hope Guatemala provides assistance to  families and children in the remote and rural  mountain towns in Guatemala.  We provide food, clothes, shelter and access to medical services.  The people here are very poor and unable to work due to disability or lack of opportunity.  We reach out to widows, the elderly, single-parent dwellings, and families.
