By volunteering or visiting the community, you are making an important contribution. Another way to support the community is to make a donation – even small amounts will help the people of La Florida move towards their vision!
The activities in the community are arranged by projects. You can either make a direct donation to one of the projects or a donation to La Florida as a community, in which case the General Assembly will decide on the best use for the donation. Some of the biggest financial challenges of the projects at the present include:
-
Agriculture: Expanding and diversifying the agricultural production and building the infrastructure to process the coffee in the community.
-
Healthcare: Developing the health post in terms of medical supplies and equipment and developing the elaboration of natural medicine in the community.
-
Education: Building a proper primary school for the children. One block costs 4Q (0.50 USD) and 2000 blocks are needed to build the whole school.
-
Ecotourism: Reparation of the Casa Grande to provide better accommodation for visitors. Approximated cost: Q1,024,680.00.
-
Women: Providing the women with opportunities for trainings and personal development.
-
Youth: Helping the youth to start their own project so that they can have more opportunities in terms of education and work.
One of the biggest dreams of the community as a whole is a project known by the name Vivienda Digna, which aims at building a house for each family providing them with decent living conditions and a dignified life. This is a major project, for which the community is at the present seeking financial support.
