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.

Guatemala Independence Day 2008

Friday, September 12th we celebrated Guatemala's 187th independence day. It was quite a treat for all of us. The children dressed in indigenous traje, we ate typica food, there was music and dance. I have to say the independence day celebration is my favorite. This year we even had little red aliens, with antennas. I am not sure how they figured into Guatemala's independence from Spain, but they were adorable. For more wonderful photos please go to Gary Cooper's website and look at his photos, they are just incredible:
