Volcan de Fuego, about 40km (25 miles) south-west of the capital Guatemala City, spewed rock, gas and ash into the sky.

Who am I and how will this money help?
Quien soy yo, y como ayudara este dinero?
My name is Liliana Santizo, I've lived in the US for almost all my life, and have devoted my years to working with non-profits in the US and latin America. My parents and I came to the United States several years ago. I have led relief projects for Hurrican Sandy and other tragedies in conjunction with national organizations. My entire life has been dedicated working with children & family services, my clients come from various many countries, including Guatemala.
I believe in social impact - one with intentional giving.
If you feel compelled to send a monetary donation, I will assure it goes towards providing emergency supplies, resources for the families impacted and those willing to go volunteer. I have already connected with people and organizations on the grounds bringing supplies, and mobilizing efforts. In the coming days I will provide a list of organizations & businesses I am partnering with to assist with relief donations.
Mi nombre es Liliana Santizo, he vivido en los Estados Unidos por la mayor parte de mi vida, me empeño por ayudar familias y niños atravez de programas sociales por mas de 10 anos.

Estare conectada con organizaciones y personas dedicadas a ayudar.
I am terribly saddened by these news, and ask that we continue to send our prayers and encouraging thoughts to the people affected by this tragedy.
Estamos tristes, and pido las oraciones y animo para todos las victimas de este triste acontecimiento.
