We maintain a firm and ongoing commitment to our
donors to ensure that their contributions are used wisely and
appropriately. Therefore, we adhere to the Standards for Charitable Accountability as developed by the U.S. Better Business Bureau Wise Giving Alliance. And, as you can see from the graph to the left, in 2011, over 91% of our expenditures went directly to our programs in Guatemala.
Thank you again for your desire to create a
more just world through the power and dignity of education. Your
contribution does have an IMPACT!
