I hope all is well with you. To celebrate Giving Tuesday today all donations will be supplemented with a share of a $1 million fund from GlobalGiving. If you can, please donate to this page today to take advantage of this fantastic opportunity from GlobalGiving for the projects with your donation making even more impact!
All today’s donations will be part of this year’s Fly The Phoenix Appeal which will go towards our local teachers, hygiene products for the classrooms, scholarships, educational materials, the elderly, transport and food for the rest of this year and a platform for 2022 across all our countries.
In a bid to neutralize the projects’ carbon footprint from day-to-day activities which include boat travel for the students in Guatemala, pickup transport for the students in Honduras and teachers’ transport up into the mountains in Ecuador and desert in Perú we, Fly The Phoenix, are planting a tree for every $15 raised.
We continue to provide all the necessary hygiene products needed to keep the classrooms open and the communities as safe as they can be. The children in Ecuador were vaccinated with their first dose recently with the aim to restart regular classes in 2022. Covid protocols are written and given orally both in Kichwa and Spanish for those parents who cannot read. In Perú we provided food parcels for the families as rules remain strict with movement. One of our key long-term responses to Covid is to maintain all our projects functionning as best as they can so the children don't lose out on their education.
We will continue to provide hygiene products for as long as is necessary over the coming years.
Many thanks for anything you can donate to this page today to take advantage of the bonus funding.
Cheers
