**At ProChapina, our Handicrafts & Skills Workshops are designed to support one woman or young person at a time through hands-on training in crafts and practical skills. This contribution is dedicated to empowering a single participant to learn how to create eco-friendly bags, handmade dolls, jewelry, and other artisan products that can be sold to generate income.**

**Your support helps one individual discover their creativity, build self-reliance, and develop skills that open the door to economic opportunity. Through this workshop, you are helping transform talent into sustainable income and confidence into independence.**

Hands That Create, Skills That Empower

Empowering vulnerable communities in Guatemala through education, healthcare access, and dignified housing solutions.

**In rural Guatemala, progress often comes down to one missing piece**: a computer, a clean stove, a safe roof, a scholarship. **ProChapina exists to provide those missing links** — practical tools that open real opportunities for children, women, and families to rebuild their lives with dignity.

**Rooted in community**, every project is designed to solve a specific barrier to wellbeing. Here's how we’re making change — and what it takes to do it:

The 7 Projects Powering Change

1. Digital Learning Centers

Opening access to technology for children and women through computer-equipped classrooms, building digital literacy and future-ready skills.
**Annual budget needed: $10,000**
Includes laptops, desks, printers, internet access, and tech support.

2. Eco-Stove Initiative

Distributing clean-burning industrial stoves to reduce health risks and help families start small, sustainable businesses.
**Cost per industrial stove: $300**
**Annual target: 50 stoves | Total: $15,000**
Each stove helps a family cook safely and often launch a microbusiness.

3. Artisan Workshops

Training women and youth to create handmade crafts — eco-bags, bracelets, and dolls — turning creativity into economic independence.
**Annual budget needed: $6,000**
Covers instructor stipends, supplies, and seed capital for artisans.

4. Child Sponsorship Program

Matching donors with children to fund education, reduce child labor, and provide vital school support.
**$45/month per child | 60 children | Annual total: $32,400**
Covers tuition, uniforms, school supplies, transportation, and mentorship.

5. Educational Scholarships

Helping high school and university students from low-income backgrounds pursue their academic goals without interruption.
**$750/year per student | 25 students | Total: $18,750**
Supports tuition, learning materials, internet access, and exams.

6. Health & Wellness Program

Providing free medical, dental, and nutritional care to underserved communities, including mobile clinics and access to medication.
**Annual budget: $12,000**
Includes medical supplies, healthcare professional fees, and rural outreach.

7. Safe Housing Support

Improving or building dignified homes — bathrooms with hot water, clean floors, and secure structures.
**$3,500 per family | 12 homes/year | Annual total: $42,000**
Focuses on families in extreme poverty, especially single mothers and children.

“Our bathroom used to be a health hazard. Now, we have hot water, space, and dignity — thanks to ProChapina.”

Our Most Ambitious Dream: The ProChapina Community Home

Beyond individual programs, our greatest and most heartfelt goal is to build a **permanent community home** — a dedicated, multi-use facility where education, healing, empowerment, and belonging come together.

This **Cultural and Educational Center** will include:

- Computer labs for students and digital literacy
- Artisan classrooms and co-creation space
- Childcare and early learning area
- Community kitchen for training and nutrition
- Mental health and wellness room
- Multi-purpose classrooms and mentorship hubs

**Estimated cost for land, construction, and setup: $125,000**
This home will serve as an anchor for generations — a living legacy of dignity, education, and opportunity.

**Every donation matters. Every project restores dignity. Every supporter becomes a part of something greater than charity — a movement of lasting change.**
Together, we are not just filling gaps. We are building the future.
