Directorio Guatemala

Vida is an apolitical and non-profit organization that fights discrimination and defends the fundamental rights of people. We believe that a more inclusive society can be built and to achieve this Vida helps to improve the quality of life of people in our community, facilitating access to services such as education, health and nutrition.

We are a Christian dance ministry that works with children of all socioeconomic status, including orphanages, providing dance classes, academics support and workshops on health and faith.

littleGIANTS is a non profit organisation, operating in the field of education and community building, that provides the tools to empower children and youth (4-18 years old) from distressed neighborhoods and their communities to unchain their dreams, unleash their potential, thrive and create lasting change in their communities. We achieve this through our integral after school learning experience which explores the uniqueness of each child and develops personal life skills that will lead to social transformation and children will act as agents of change for their communities.  

What makes us different:

• Our holistic approach: we not only empower children, but also their families and communities to share the common goal of creating a stronger and more sustainable society. 
• We offer an inclusive and personalized approach (max 8 children / educator), we are able to tailor our programme to the unique needs of the child.
• We focus our learning methodology on Project Based Learning with social impact and community engagement focusing on real life community problems contributing towards the Sustainable Development Goals.
• We provide long-term continuity. Our children are with us more than 6 hours a day for 12 to 14 years of their lives.
• We become family.
