THANK YOU- Marine View Presbyterian

Marine View Presbyterian, HFPF’s longest-serving team, made their way to Montenegro Yacanxac to install Aller Stoves and water filters. This group included participants with multiple years of experience as well as a few newcomers to the mission.

HFPF is dedicated to offering sustainable resources and solutions requested by the villages. Since 1985, the Foundation has constructed schools, clinics, water catchments, installed lifesaving wood stoves, and created opportunities for residence of Barillas to elevate themselves. One topic we rarely discuss is supporting sustainability; Marine View Presbyterian Church stands as a model for it.

For over thirty years, the Marine View congregation has responded to the call to serve, continually providing invaluable service to the communities in the Barillas area. They have installed thousands of Aller Stoves and water filters and completed special projects to enhance village life. Marine View has consistently helped Guatemalans build a brighter future.

It was an honor to spend time with such an exceptional team in the village of Montenegro Yacanxac, Guatemala. If you are seeking a chance to serve, this is a team worth joining.

In August 2019, 24 Rotaractors came together and raised over $80,000 to install 89 ventilated Aller stoves in the rural village of Cementerio Jolomtaj, Guatemala. We also planted 290 lime trees and brought reading glasses and soccer balls. It was an amazing experience to say the least!

Six years ago in high school I had the opportunity to travel to Guatemala on a service project and help in the villages for 2 weeks as well as travel around the beautiful country that is Guatemala. This summer I had the chance to return to Guatemala to volunteer in the villages as well as travel around, and it did not disappoint.
