ON A PERSONAL NOTE:
It is once again the time of year for the big One Week for One Year fundraiser. I am fasting for a week (liquids only, soups, juices, and smoothies) as a part of a big group of people who are participating here in San Marcos La Laguna, Guatemala, and all over the world. I invite you to join me in this fast. The restrictions are simple and you are your own guide as to what your body needs. Here is the sink to sign up:

So why am I fasting? The goal of this week is first, to raise awareness about food scarcity, a situation too many on our planet experience every day. Imagine going to bed and not knowing if you have the resources to feed yourself or your children the following day. If nothing else, please tell someone you know about food scarcity. This is a planetary issue and simply starting the conversation is an important step in working towards a solution.
My second goal is to raise funds to help solve this problem through a wonderful program in my adopted town of San Marcos La Laguna, where every day I am surrounded by people facing food scarcity. I invite you to sponsor me in my fast. $20 buys 150 eggs, $100 pays a week salary for our cooks, $350 pays for a lunch for a YEAR. My link is:

Below is some additional information about the Konojel Community Center and how your support of this fast will make a real difference for people in this beautiful but impoverished community.
Konojel is a project of The All Together Foundation, a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit EIN 47-2522190.
Thank you so much. Every little bit helps,
Daisy
All Together Foundation Director
