XELA AID

Xela AID is pioneering Montessori education in the rural "Area Mám," one of Guatemala's worst poverty belts. We're doing this because children who speak only their native Mám when they start gradeschool have only a 1 in 10 chance of making it to the sixth grade. This preeminent teaching method aims to give them the headstart they need to be successful. You can help a child defeat poverty for as little as $10 a month by becoming a member of our Head Start Hero Club... Local Hope Guatemala, also known as Xela AID Partnerships for Self-Reliance, is a not-for-profit 501 (c) (3) corporation, EIN #45-3658025. All or part of your contributions may be tax deductible.
