Without Education We Cannot Save Our Home

Organization information

From Books to Brilliance

Location: Albuquerque, United States of America

Summary

From Books to Brilliance (FBTB) will create access to educational resources for Mayans living in the isolated river-village of Seacacar. With no electricity or running water, life echoes that of their ancestors. But life has changed. Fewer trees and animals in the forest, and fewer fish in the river, make survival more difficult. "Without education we cannot save our home, and our children need jobs," says Juan. FBTB partners with Rios Fund to support education, reforestation and job creation.
