We feel blessed to have the possibility for work, which is dignified and just, in which everyone can learn new skills and have professional development in a positive atmosphere, without exploitation or oppression.
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.
Hector Ricardo San José
Primero la bendicion de poder optar a un trabajo digno y justo, en donde todos podran aprender cosas nuevas y desarrollar su trabajo con alegria, sin ser explotados u oprimidos.
Residente de Chajmaic
Para ellos es una gran bendicion ya que este proyecto les da esperanza y deseo de salir adelante todos juntos como una gran familia.
Hector Ricardo San José
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
Luego tener la bendicion de un salario justo que los ayudara a llevar el pan a la mesa, y que podran combatir el hambre de sus hijos.

Many Opportunities for Sowing Hope The students at Many Opportunities for Sowing Hope The students at Fray school in Guatemala are enjoying a very special Christmas present: a harvest grown especially so they will have food during their month-long holiday break. The amazing thing is that the seedlings for these crops were planted only two weeks before Thanksgiving. This is incredible growth, due to the techniques and dedication of the team, students and teachers! And, it is thanks to your donations that this is possible at all! https://conta.cc/49uEvkL #opportunities #sowing #hope #students #school #Guatemala #Christmas #present #harvest #food #seedlings #crops #plant #growth #teachers
2025 was @sowingopportunities ’ most engaged year 2025 was @sowingopportunities ’ most engaged year ever! Since we began in 2022 providing greenhouse agriculture in the remote, indigenous highlands of Eastern Alta Verapaz, we have added one village each year. Now we are now working with four villages!

And this year, we also added two schools! Working with schools allows us to reach more families, as the students teach their parents what they’ve learned. They are not only learning a trade. They also have regular school lunches. 

In 2026, we are planning to add four additional schools, to increase the number of families served in the region.

Won’t you join us in this exciting endeavor? You can make your donation at http://bit.ly/3qTdfbK. Thank you so much!
¡El año 2025 fue el año más activo y exitoso de @s ¡El año 2025 fue el año más activo y exitoso de @sowingopportunities ! Desde que comenzamos en el año 2022 a ofrecer agricultura de invernadero en las remotas tierras altas indígenas del este de Alta Verapaz, cada año hemos añadido una aldea. ¡Ahora trabajamos con cuatro!

¡Y este año también añadimos dos escuelas! Trabajar con ellas nos permite llegar a más familias, ya que los alumnos enseñan a sus padres lo que han aprendido. Ellos aprenden un oficio y también reciben almuerzos escolares regulares. 

En el año 2026, planeamos añadir cuatro escuelas más para aumentar el número de familias atendidas en la región.
