About
Community Foundation of Burke, Mayas la nueva generacion – Mayas the Next Generation
Maya the Next Generation “Maya La Nueva Generación” was founded by the Board members of Opportunity Threads: Molly Hemstreet, Walter Vicente and Maricela Lopez Solis in 2019.
Our mission for the “Maya La Nueva Generación” is to help our people back home in Guatemala. To bring light and hope, we have many goals we want to achieve, there are not enough words to express how passionate we are about helping others.
So far, we have supported students in San Cristobal, Totonicapan in the aldea of San Francisco del Alto. We have helped students with scholarships to attend school to advance their education to pursue a career for a better life for their future, and giving them a chance to give back to their communities.
Our dream is to extend the growth of our foundation to build homes, local schools, providing the daily life necessities such as food, water and hygiene kits, for those who don’t have the resources.
“With such great needs we are called to accomplish this great mission to help our brothers and sisters in Christ. By putting a grain of sand to change one life at a time. [Psalms 19-17: “He who is kind to the poor lends to the Lord and he will repay him for his deed.]”
