Guatemala has the lowest literacy rate in Latin America. Less than 10% of children enrolled finish high school. Child Aid is working to change that.

Check out this great new video that two of our supporters helped us make. Karena O’Riordan ran around Guatemala for days filming numerous Child Aid libraries and interviewing parents, teachers and librarians. John Kin, a producer at Oregon Public Broadcasting, and a longtime supporter of Child Aid, helped us with the idea and put in loads of hours combing through Karena’s footage and putting this video together.

Not only is this a great video (Don’t you agree?), but it’s a perfect example of how our supporters make it possible for us to do things like this without having to spend a bunch of money. That means more money goes to the Guatemalan and Mexican children who need it.

Big thanks to both John and Karena for this! Let us know what you think of the video – and please forward it to your friends!
