From the Guatemalan Mission Team
The Guatemala mission team will be serving around 1000 children across 4 schools and an orphanage in mid-March.
We’re looking for donations of the following items:
- Summer clothing for orphan babies/toddlers (0-3 years), young children (3-12 years) and young moms (11-15 years)
- Baby shoes, regular shoes, tennis shoes, socks and towels for children (1-10 years)
- Diapers, blankets, bottles for newborns
- Medicine and first aid items, such as Tylenol, Advil, Polysporin, bandages, alcohol swabs
- Soft cover lightweight notebooks, crayons, watercolor paints, pencils, pens and calculators
- Laptops and portable projectors in good condition
- Deflated soccer balls, volleyball nets, ping-pong paddles, tennis balls
- Uniforms for sports teams
- Lightweight non-bulky toys such as stuffed animals
The weather in the region (Antigua) ranges from 12-30 degrees Celsius, so the clothing items should be lightweight. If you have any of these items in good condition, please make sure they are clean, sorted into clean bags by category, and you can place them in the clothing bin previously used for the Canadian/Ukrainian parachute donations. Thank you for your generosity! The babies and school children will be very blessed by your donations.
The deadline is March 2nd
