Seeds of Love

The mission of Semillas de Amor Children's Village is to provide care, high-level education, and solid futures for Guatemala's at-risk children. In addition to consisting of a home for children who are unable to remain with their families, plans for the children's village include a school, a clinic, and a daycare facility for working mothers. The facility is in the early stages of construction. We are currently seeking donors and volunteers interested in helping make this dream a reality.

Eye Exams at Semillas de Amor

In July, our children at Semillas de Amor, our employees and their children were treated to free eye exams by Dr. Brad Jacoby and his family. They not only examined 80 patients but provided all glasses free of charge to our children, employees and their children. One of the children, of a Semillas de Amor employee, was in great need of glasses. He is 9 years old and nobody had any idea that he was unable to see. His new glasses will surely make a difference in his studies at school. An eye exam is a luxury in Guatemala but then to be provided, free of charge, glasses is truly a gift. Thank you to Dr. Jacoby and family!
