​Urgent Covid-19 Relief for Indigenous Communities in Peru and Guatemala

Community members from a Q’eqchi Mayan community in Guatemala displaying a white flag. Our partners there, have launched this initiative where families suffering from hunger or have a sick relative in the home can put up a white flag so that community volunteers can find them and help.

​


​Indigenous communities in Peru and Guatemala are culturally strong and resilient, but they are facing dire conditions in the face of Covid-19.  Grassroots initiatives are being led both in Peru and Guatemala within communities where Plenty Canada has developed strong relationships over the years.  Many families are suffering from hunger and deprivation. Their lives have been severely disrupted by the pandemic and by the official restrictions on all travel. These initiatives are run by local Indigenous volunteers in an effort to help their extended communities. We need your support to uplift these communities by helping to provide lifesaving resources, at a time when they are most vulnerable.
