Initiative started when Wualter Ordoñez, the Founder and Executive Director, fell in love with Guatemala and the children during December 2012. This marked the start of our ministry.
The unknown of the first mission
The school year in Guatemala starts in January. Wualter traveled in December to deliver school supplies for children. Although this began as a personal trip, what he did not know is that this began the ground work for a yearly mission.
Wualter was clear on what he wanted to accomplish. However, he had no idea what steps to take to achieve his goal.
The supplies
He was prepared to donate school supplies for 430 students. He purchased everything out of his own pockets. The purchases started in August. Supplies would be shipped in November.
Individual packages for each child would include: 3 notebooks, crayons, color pencils, 3 pens, 3 pencils, eraser, pencil sharpener, glue, scissors, and geometric rulers.
Wualter visited one school. This was the start of our school supplies delivery mission.
Returning missions
Since then, Wualter has traveled every December delivering school supplies to children in 5 different schools. A total of 4,030 school supplies packages have been delivered.
We look forward to deliver many more thanks to your support!
