Helping Guatemalan students

 

         

            Receiving school supplies                    Villalobos squatters barrio

 

    Poverty in the ramshackle squatter's areas which ring Guatemala City is endemic and pervasive, with many children unable to attend school just for the lack of basic, and inexpensive, necessities such as pencils, pens, paper, notebooks, etc.

    We ask your help to contribute what you can so that we may purchase and distribute needed supplies on a recurring basis.  Our suggested donation of $50 makes a huge difference here, where the lack of a few pencils or a $10 US equivalent school registration fee can be the difference between a better future thru education, or being mired forever in oppressive poverty.

    As in the Copper Canyon, 100% of your contribution goes to help the kids, so we hope you consider donating.

    (We are also in the process of developing a student scholarship program similar to what we have done with great success in the Copper Canyon; please drop a line if you might be interested in helping in this way once the program is established)

 

Please email us if you have any questions, or would like to donate to our Guatemala student program

 

Our creed:

"Ecotourism is environmentally responsible travel and visitation to
relatively undisturbed natural areas, in order to enjoy and appreciate
nature (and any accompanying cultural features - both past and present) that
promotes conservation, has low negative visitor impact, and provides for
beneficially active socio-economic involvement of local populations
(Ceballos-Lascurain, Tourism, Ecotourism and Protected Areas, IUCN, 1996)".

 

(Note: We use the word Raramuri throughout as the most accurate name of the indigenous people of the Copper Canyon (what they call themselves, not the more commonly used "Tarahumara", which is actually a word the Spanish created))

 

Please note that while many of our trips start with your arrival in Los Mochis, we can modify ANY itinerary to start in El Paso or Chihuahua, if that is your preferred starting point.  Please note that because of the greater distances to many areas in the Copper Canyon from those two cities, itineraries which start from there may require more transportation time, and may be more expensive due to the increased transportation cost. These increased time and money costs may offset any benefits from lower airfares to these cities, but we will do what we can to keep your trip cost down.
