Dia de la Madre

Just passing this along:


Hola friends of Mayan Families,

A mother's work is never done. This couldn't be truer for many of the indigenous women here in G*atemala who wash clothes by hand, grind corn, collect and chop firewood, carry water long distances often while carrying a baby on their back.

In addition to these difficulties the cost of the price of living has increased in G*atemala over the recent months which has radically impacted the community, making daily life even harder for already struggling families.

All mother's want the same thing for their children; to be healthy, well fed and happy.
Sadly many mothers in G*atemala are unable to give this to their children.

Please consider giving a Mother's Day Basket that is full of nutritious food.
You can give this basket to a family for just $30.US.


A Mayan Families basket will include:

Each basket will include the following items:
Roast Chicken,
Oatmeal,
Pasta,
Rice,
Coffee,
Black beans,
Oil,
Carrots,
Bananas,
Pineapple,
Incaprina (a nutritious, high fibre local beverage),
and all goods will be packaged in a multipurpose, reusable plastic basket.

We hope that this Mother's Day you can assist us in supporting and honoring a Mother in the G*atemalan Highlands.

If you would like to donate this gift in honor of a special mother - we will be happy to announce this on our website.

We thank you for your continued support. To pay for your Mother's Day Basket please go to www.mayanfamilies.org and send $30 US through Paypal to the Mayan Families Food & Milk Program.
