Community Infrastructure Fund

 

As a part of educational mission, CasaSito strives to improve the living condition of the families of rural areas of Guatemala to a level from which they can build their own future and better lives.

 

 

Rainwater Catchment Tanks Construction Program:girls

  • This program improves domestic water supplies for rural villagers in Guatemala, where besides the lack of clean drinking water, water for bathing is greatly restricted, especially in the dry season, causing skin and other health problems. Each tank can hold up to 6,000 liters of water, which if used properly will last 2-3 months of the dry season and offer clean water during the rainy season.
  • For every tank we build, Foundation ViaVenture will donate a bio-water filter.

girlsCommunity health posts:

  • We raise funds to help community health posts with equipment and medicine.
  • We also look for associations and university volunteer programs to partner with local communities to improve the quality of health services and  special projects such water quality control, medicinal herbal garden, workshops and intensive courses for health promoters.

Emergency relief:

  • We provide medical help and food supplies to communities and individuals who suffer from the lack of medical services or natural disasters. In 2005, CasaSito offered emergency food supplies to villages around the Tacaná area, which was very affected by Hurricane Stan. We often assist children and their families with medicine, hospital visits and emergency transport fees.

Microfinance projects:

  • We help associations to apply micro load to equip their education centers and support mothers who are related to our partner associations to start small business in order to improve their income.
