Healthy school meals make a big difference - especially in Guatemala, where 1 in 2 children under 5 suffer from malnutrition. On #WorldFoodDay, we recognize the importance of strengthening food systems to improve access to healthy, nutritious foods. Thanks to partners like Feed My Starving Children and our local partners like FUNDEMI Talita Kumi, where the girls in this photo are learning how to create delicious and healthy recipes with fortified foods and locally-available ingredients, together we are working to bring nutritious foods to all children and set them up for success in life. #WorldFoodDay2024

What an inspiring experience at the Central American Donors Forum last week! Kevin and Brenda had a great time connecting with old and new friends at #CADF2024 organized by Seattle International Foundation. This great session featured our partner Asociacion BAYAN and their impactful work through the HEY! Project to challenge harmful gender norms and transform youth's futures in Honduras. We look forward to continuing to collaborate to scale up programs like HEY! through #AlianzasTransformadoras for Central America.

[EL MORRITO SCHOOL TURNS THE PAGE WITH A NEW LIBRARY] 📚🌱✨ With hearts full of excitement, we celebrated the new library opening at El Morrito School, alongside our partner Fabretto Children's Foundation and the presence of the Minister of Education, Anabella Giracca. This inspiring space, brought to life with a beautiful mural by artist Alejandro Requena and his team, will offer 109 students and 6 teachers a place where imaginations can soar and stories come to life. As Dr. Seuss said, “The more you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.” 🌟 📖Let’s turn the page on a new journey of learning and creativity!
