LifeNets continues to support
 Guatemala Habitat, Livelihood
and Education Projects for the year 2002

April 25, 2003

We are happy to be continue helping needy people with basic habitat, livelihood development and education. A modest donation goes a long way to improve living conditions, create incomes through small businesses and provide scholarships for education that offers hope for a better living. LifeNets began working in Latin America in 2000.  Our first country was Guatemala.  The photos below tell the story about our most recent success stories that have made a difference for these families. 

Thanks for helping us continue these projects.
