WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT US

"Overcoming poverty is not a task of charity, it is an act of justice. Like slavery and apartheid, poverty is not natural. It is man-made and can be overcome by the actions of human beings. Sometimes it falls on a generation to be great. You can be that great generation. Let your greatness blossom.”

-Mandela-

"The 'Milpas Altas area' is badly in need of medical attention, many people have to travel to the capital city in search of clinical care. That is why the work that Kalan Kuxtal does is extremely important to us."

Erik Canel

Community Leader

"Thank God they (the volunteers) took good care of me... They examined my blood pressure and sugar levels and in the end everything went well and they gave me my medicine for that."

Patient

Sumpango Community

"I was treated very well, everything was explained to me. Volunteers paid me a lot of attention. Honestly, I thank you all very much for coming here to Guatemala to give us all this help with the medicines. God bless you."

Patient

Santo Tomas Community

"All these people were great with us. Thank God they came here to help us. May God bless them whatever they go because they took care of my daughter, myself, and even my little children who couldn't come to the clinic."

Patient

Santa Lucia Community

"It seemed to me that they care they (the volunteers) provided me was really good. This is a great blessing for us because, as I told the doctor, sometimes we have money for one medical consultation but not to buy the medicines."

Patient

Santo Tomas Community

"The volunteers took good care of me. Excellent care. They explained to me the schedule for taking each of the medications and what they are for. I want to thank you for coming, may this not be the only time, I hope they can come here other times."

Patient

Sumpango Community

"I want to thank you on behalf of the people of Sumpango, because we've had many difficulties since the COVID pandemic. Most of us were left with financial problems and without a job. Thus, we thank you so much and ask you, from the bottom of our hearts, to please don't let this be the last time you visit us."

Patient

Sumpango Community

"My experience with the volunteers was that they were very proactive, they told what to do, how to take my medications, and I thank all of them for the priceless help they are giving us. And also to Erik for being so kind with us as well."
