Sunday, March 29th, after watching church online, our family felt compelled to start a "food program" for Ixchel and Kalak employees during this pandemic. This program provides basic food items while spreading hope. Many of you reached out to us, thank you.

With the enthusiastic support of Ixchel management and others (a special thank you to Sonia,) we kicked off the distribution in just 3 days. Wednesday, Kalak employees received their first package. The appreciation shown after this first distribution was overwhelming. We are continuing weekly! Below you will see some pictures as well as video links.

Thanks to your help, our initial goal of feeding 75 families through June was surpassed. We are funded through July!

We are hoping to raise additional funding to extend giving through August.

Additional funds will allow us to extend the giving as needed.

We know some of you help in your own way...please continue! For those of you looking for a way to help we have attached information.
