Sustainable Income Plans in Latin America

It has been a great few months with the sutainable plans as we begin to see the shoots of progress and the ultimate aim to have the projects fund themselves within a few years. In Guatemala the Plan Moo herd continues to grow and as we continue to purchase new cows the aim for our 50 strong herd by the end of 2019 is attainable.

In Honduras our Plan Tienda (a small business selling food), our vegetable gardens and of course Plan Café are already covering some of the monthly project costs. We plan to invest in chickens and more vegetable gardens over the next few months. In Ecuador Plan Moo lready covers most of the communities' secondary school and college needs and Plan Huerto (vegetables) are covering some of the needed food for school meals. Perú is still up in the air, with it being in the desert, though we are looking at Alpacas in the altiplano as well as small business within the community.

Our annual Seven Continent Charity Challenge #4 which raises funds for all our projects across Guatemala, Honduras, Ecuador and Perú was a huge success in May, biking, kayaking, hiking and “volcanoing” our way to Lake Atitlán in Guatemala, covering over 75kms. There is still time to support the cause by donating to this page and thank you!

A date for your diary for 2019: The Seven Continent Charity Challenge #5 will be the Inca Trail and Machu Picchu in Perú from 27-31^st May – please contact us if you are interested on dom@thephoenixprojects.org . There are limited spaces so please let us know as soon as you can!

Have a fantastic June and we’ll be in touch in August with another update! Cheers
