Funds raised

Guatemala has one of the highest rates of illiteracy in Latin America, with one of the lowest percentages of GDP spent on education. Child Aid addresses these problems through a structured, multi-year curriculum based on international best practices and aligned with the Guatemalan National Curriculum.

Our project was focused on providing high quality, grade appropriate, Spanish language, fiction and non-fiction books, along with an easy classification system and moveable bookshelves, to help remedy the lack of resources in primary school classrooms.

During the grant period, we delivered 10,000 high-quality, grade appropriate, Spanish language fiction and non-fiction books and help create school libraries and lending programs.
