Welcome to Niños del Lago!
Our Mission
To develop resiliency and help heal the lives of the poorest children in Guatemala who struggle with daily survival so that they have the chance of leading meaningful lives as adults.
Our Goals
To provide a tranquil, stable respite from the impoverished lives of needy Guatemalan children, and offer physical, artistic and cultural programs so that they have the opportunity to experience alternate positive environments where they play, learn and grow.
The children we host are referred to Niños del Lago from existing social programs such as orphanages, homes for abused and abandoned children, homeless shelters and other agencies working to improve the lives of the most endangered children in Guatemala, those who have inherited the fallout of over 37 years of civil war and social upheaval.
An Invitation
As you travel upon your own path, you are invited to join us as a donor, counselor or volunteer. We invite you to participate in our mission to save the hearts and minds of children who are living in extreme poverty. Please donate all you can and come and get involved in this beautiful ‘heart work’ which helps to heal the heart of Guatemala, her children.
