THE TIERRA LINDA WOMEN'S GROUP

THE WOMEN'S GROUP IN TIERRA LINDA:

This is a group of 150 Indigenous women who mostly work in agriculture. Through their efforts we became aware of the needs of the school in Tierra Linda. Most of these woman do not speak Spanish, they speak a Mayan dialect called Kaqchikel.

We have distributed clothing, blankets, baby clothes, sweaters, pants etc to this group.

We also distributed food that was donated and medical supplies.

The women helped organize the medical teams that we brought to the school in Tierra Linda.

We organized a chicken project for them.
