Children in Guatemala having a party

Happy (soon to be) New Year! These children in Guatemala are having a party celebrating their opportunity for education. Many children are forced to work long hours picking coffee beans. But Compassion is helping families to see the importance of getting a full education.


If you’d like to help a family that would otherwise rely on child labor to make ends meet, consider giving a family gift. Family gifts are most often used to buy income-generating livestock, to start a small business, or to meet a critical need.
