Juana can dream big!

Juana Patricia Ixmatá Tambríz
Dear Chris and Emily,

Juana was born on May 9, 1999. She lives in the Sololá region of rural Guatemala and is in 5th grade. Juana’s father, Miguel, is a day laborer who works on other people’s land for about $75USD per month. Her mother, Manuela, is an embroiderer who makes about $15USD per month.

Juana wants to be a physical education teacher when she grows up to help children stay in good physical and mental shape. She has to walk 30 minutes each way to get to the center where she receives her computer classes. Thanks to your generous donation, Juana will be computer literate which will help her to achieve all of her dreams.
