Scholarships in Santiago Atitlan, Guatemala

While Andy is in Honduras I'm here in Santiago Atitlan, Guatemala. Today was a favorite day. I gave out the student scholarships on behalf of Farmer to Farmer. All were very grateful for the support. They spoke being motivated to work harder in school knowing Farmer to Farmer cares about how they do. It is wonderful to see the excitement of the students, especially the University students (there are 9 now!). It was fantastic. Here are some photos from the day and of the 27 students.
