The girls and boys of Manos Amigas were extremely excited by the new t-shirts and shoes that they received for physical education.
One Smile at a Time
Today is finally coming to an end, with 1,400 people’s teeth happy and healthy.
A Christmas Jingle
The women of Manos Amigas presented in the spirit of Christmas a wonderful performance to all the families of the centre.
Piñatas for all!!
Following the tradition of the taverns (nine days of religious observance), the boys and girls of Manos Amigas celebrated joyfully, singing Christmas songs and breaking many piñatas filled with fruit, toys, and sweets.
Lets get creative
Using only recycled materials, during the holidays we held the annual “build your own nativity scene” competition.
Happy new Year
As the holidays approach, we would like to send a special thank you to every one of our supporters.
We look forward to seeing what the new year brings us, and wish you all the peace, love and joy this holiday season.
New Graduates
We would like to welcome two new professionals into the community. Two of our students Mishell Fuentes Patzan and Gladis Ascencio have just graduated, with an official certification as Pre-Primary teachers.
Personal and Academic Growth
Whenever it comes to the end of the term, the level of excitement and emotions is very high at Manos Amigas. Two of our students, Jose Enrique Cumes and Carlos Gustavo Velasquez, have made both the community and their godparents proud!
Pastries for all
We were very excited to see every single student graduate from the course, but now we are even more excited to get our hands (and teeth) into some of the pastries. With the holidays upon us, we are looking forward to tasting all the pastries.
A new chapter begins
On November 5th, one of our students obtained her high school degree in Science and Literature with a focus on Education. Sindi graduated from the Pedro Molina School in Chimaltenango with a big smile, forever grateful to God, Suor Marcela and all the sponsors for their endless support.
