Hola! Mayan Families is an organization of volunteers living in the highlands of the Lake Atitlan area in the small town of Panajachel, Guatemala, Central America. With your assistance we are making small miracles happen each day in peoples' lives. One child at a time. One Family at a time. Every dollar donated goes to fund our many worthwhile projects. We all work on a Volunteer basis. We work within the Indigenous Mayan Communities on projects ranging from enrolling and keeping kids, especially girls, in school, helping single parent families deal with HIV/AIDS, Malnutrition, Basic Health Care, Organizing Medical and Dental Clinics, Animal Rescue and so much more. MayanFamilies.org provides assistance to populations in distress, to victims of natural or man-made disasters. We do so irrespective of race, creed or religion. Our projects are varied but because we have lived and been involved with indigenous community life in Guatemala for many years we find ourselves able to respond in a personal way to the immediate and actual needs as they appear. We need your help, prayers and assistance! We are located in and supporting the various Indigenous Mayan Communities in the Highlands of Guatemala, Central America, recently Devastated by Hurricane STAN in October 2005.
