Season Greetings Everyone

Education in Action hopes that you and your family are all doing well.

We have a brief update on our donation drive. In all, we raised a little over $3,600 for our CCDA campasinos in Guatemala. Your generosity is greatly appreciated. Although our donation drive is officially over, additional donations will still be accepted.

At this time we would like to thank everyone for your support through out the year, whether it be by purchasing Café Justicia, volunteering at the New Art Festival, or via monetary donations. And we look forward to your continued support in 2023.

We wish you all a happy and safe holiday season.
