Solidarity relief effort Guatemala

Donation protected
 Sunday (6/3) afternoon the "Volcan de Fuego" erupted massively killing dozens of people, injuring hundreds of others, displacing thousands and affecting over a million people. 
Surrounding communities are still in peril, 7 districts still in Red  alert, and more than 3,000 people evacuated.

This effort to help the Guatemalan people is to provide food and water.

Your contribution will help  provide those affected with food and water. The funds will be sent to the World Central Kitchen, a nonprofit that helps provide food aid to countries during times of disaster, our contact in the ground is Christina Espinoza founder of Gente Gas in Guatemala. 

The distribution of the donations will go for meals for the people in need. The first amount of money will be sent on Saturday (6/9). We will continue collecting funds and continue distributing as more donations come in. 

It's in moments like these when we need to come together and help our neighbors to the south. 

Fuego is one of Latin America's most active volcanoes. A major eruption devastated nearby farms in 1974, but no deaths were recorded. Sunday's event was on a much greater scale.

This eruption is Guatemala's deadliest since 1902.

Please help us fund raise for the people of Guatemala in this moment of sorrow.
