In Guatemala, there's a legacy spanning many thousands of years. The monumental cities of the ancient Maya, through the heritage of the Spanish who came ashore in the 15th century, to today's Guatemala are a blend of the past into the present. Throughout this time, women have passed down weaving traditions. Today, culture is preserved through skilled hands that transform threads and fibers into garments. Through the village banking project, CARE is providing women the opportunity to hang on to tradition.
CARE is truly a gift that directs people to a better life.
I was astounded at the scope and the size of CARE's diversity. The GFWC has been assisting CARE for 53 years.
