An update on la Guardería,
There has been a recent push at Pop Wuj to improve sanitation at la Guardería. This entails building a trash pit so that trash that is currently being burnt can be picked up monthly. Furthermore, Pop Wuj hopes to employ an extra person specifically for the task of clean-up. In the future we also hope to install a drainage system so that soapy and dirty water that currently drains into crops (and passes through the burning trash on the way), can drain safely.
These aspirations along with the rising cost of food and gas have created a desperate need for more funds at la Guardería. If you feel inclined to donate or know someone who might, this would greatly help the health of the children which la Guardería serves every day. Thanks for taking the time to read this and check back for updates!
