My Nonprofit Reviews

I love the updates and newsletters from Maia! I especially love reading the writings of some of the Girl Pioneers — on Mayan culture, women’s rights, art and writing as self expression! I also appreciate the traditional recipes and language lessons!!

I am so pleased to have gotten acquainted with Maia and some of the wonderful people there! Poor Mayan girls in Guatemala very rarely finish, or even enter, high school -- but for approximately 60 girls a year in the Solola area, the future opens up in the Maia school! Here they study the normal high school curriculum PLUS Mayan culture, creative arts, and social concern and activism! Their monthly news letter is simply a joy to read: it features student written poems, personal narratives, social criticism, art work.

I also appreciate their warm and friendly and welcoming attitude towards donors or anyone who shows interest in this project! I feel like I've become part of a family!

I so much hope to visit this school one day!!
