Thank you Youthlinc for your organization's consistent communication, flexibility, and all your hard work in securing so many donations! Thank you for your cultural sensitivity and for purely serving Asociacion Ak’ Tenamit, not just taking it into your hands, but letting us tell you our needs. It is important to have that sort of consciousness in a group of people who volunteer internationally-- to understand how important it is to help in a sustainable way, empowering people to help themselves or giving them the tools to do so.

But what most impacted me about working with Youthlinc was the sincere connections your young people made with the students at Asociacion Ak' Tenamit. There were many language and cultural barriers, but those were surpassed and many beautiful friendships were cultivated ~ Bianca Gras, Asociacion Ak' Tenamit 2011-2012 Volunteer Coordinator
