OUR MISSION
We create relationship-centered language education by connecting language learners and mothers in Zone 3 of Guatemala City to collectively transform our stories, our hearts, and our world.
OUR VISION
We envision a world where every language student has access to relationship-centered language education, and where every mom has access to safe and sustainable work.
WHERE WE WORK
In the Guatemala City Garbage Dumpsite, the average woman earns between $3-$5 in a 10-12 hour work day sorting through trash for recyclable materials and risking physical harm in numerous ways. In other areas of the dumpsite economy, women often earn even less engaging in other forms of dangerous work. In a community already facing widespread socio-economic exclusion and educational inequities, for women, these challenges are coupled with systemic, gender-based violence. 43% of mothers in Zone 3 are single moms.
