Our Mission

The Guatemala Project is a Non-Profit Organization based in Iowa, USA dedicated to bettering the lives of Guatemalan citizens of limited means. The Guatemala Project works exclusively with the Guatemalan organization, ImagininGUATEmala, primarily in the areas of shelter, food security, health services, and educational support.

Board of Directors

The Guatemala Project is governed by a 100% volunteer Board of Directors. These directors meet regularly to make decisions and conduct the business of the organization. The directors are all passionate supporters of the organization and its work, including leading or participating in several previous Service Teams.

ImagininGUATEmala, the sister organization of The Guatemala Project, is a small NGO (non-profit organization) based in the charming town of Antigua, Guatemala.

Born from the shared passion of a small group of Guatemalans, this initiative is dedicated to supporting the well-being and progress of marginalized people in their community. The organization is deeply committed to collaborating with volunteers to foster the developmental, emotional, and educational growth of the children and families it serves.

Working exclusively with ImagininGUATEMala allows for the building of close, meaningful relationships among organizational members in the United States, the staff in Guatemala, and, ultimately, the children and families in need. The organization depends on the support of local and international friends, volunteers, and benefactors who feel a sense of responsibility to assist those less fortunate.
