Something wonderful about this work is that it is located close to home and the laborers don’t have to leave their families for long periods of time and live far away in order to support them.
Residente de Chajmaic
We are grateful to have the blessing of a just salary that can help us to put bread on the table, and can help us combat the hunger of our children.
Resident of Chajmaic
Tambien la alegria que podran ir y venir todos los dias a sus trabajos desde sus casas, ya que por estar accesible el lugar de trabajo no tendran que ir a vivir a otro lugar lejos de sus familias.
Residente de Chajmaic
This work provides a great blessing for the people of Chajmaic, as it gives [this village of 1,600] hope and determination to come together as one big family.
