To maximize the support we can provide our artisan partners and their families, we are extending our

COVID-19 Fundraiser

until May 5th for #GivingTuesdayNOW.

GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement unleashing the power of people and organizations to transform their communities and the world.

Join us on #GivingTuesdayNow, a global day of unity to take place on May 5, 2020, as a response to the unprecedented need caused by COVID-19.

WHY IS YOUR SUPPORT CRUCIAL?

Maya Traditions partners with women artisans from six rural, indigenous communities in Guatemala.

Of those six, five communities are in the department of Sololá and one community in the department of Quiché.

Below, you can see the departments of Sololá and Quiché have some of the highest poverty rates in Guatemala, according to the latest research from the National Statitistics Insitute of Guatemala.

We need people like you to help us provide support bags packed with food and hygiene items to our artisan partners and their families during this vulnerable time. While the restrictions in Guatemala are necessary for everyone's safety, our artisan partners and their families are experiencing lower incomes, when they already live in some of the most challenging areas in Guatemala.

Will you give a Maya Traditions support bag to an artisan and her family today?
