| THE NEED |
Guatemala - the northern-most
country in Central America - has a
population of almost 15 million people,
half of them under the age of 14, and
more than 75% of its families with
income levels below the poverty line.
Many of the children survive by eating
from garbage heaps and trashcans. In
some of the poorest areas, they dig up
grub worms to eat or sell. Their living
conditions are much worse than you or
I could ever survive!
