Our Worthy Story

 As a 501c3 non-profit organization, Worthy Village is dedicated to creating opportunities for women and children in Guatemala to break the cycle of poverty through economic empowerment, healthcare, and education. Empowering individuals to lead dignified lives by creating pathways out of poverty is at the core of our humanitarian efforts. With a focus on long-term sustainability and grassroots involvement, Worthy Village has been making a significant difference in Guatemala since its establishment in 2014, where a majority of the population lives on approximately $3.20 per day.

Worthy Village collaborates with the most vulnerable communities to devise effective solutions. Our team of indigenous Mayan social workers leads our projects and programs, ensuring culturally sensitive, feasible, and impactful outcomes. By working closely with these communities, we reach out to impoverished and isolated areas previously lacking support. We firmly believe that our community partners are best suited to identify their needs for positive change. Through building enduring relationships with local leaders, listening to their narratives, and comprehending their requirements, we have enhanced our ability to make a meaningful impact on their lives. Addressing fundamental needs such as healthcare, food security, and education remains our top priority.
