< Post-Agatha letter from Uma and Tobey—and an invitation to help our neighbors in Jaibalito		Jucanya-Panajachel and the bridges in between >

Help is needed after tropical storm Agatha hit Guatemala May 29^th 2010. Next to international and national organizations there are local ONG’s active in providing help to the local community at Lake Atitlan.

These are grass root organizations active around Lake Atitlan. Apart from having the people and infrastructure right where the need is, they have been around for years and will be for many more.

Consider making a donation to one of the following organizations:
