Guatemala NGO Network: Formerly known as La Antigua Network

The intention of the Guatemala NGO Network is to make the site a resource that the world can use to better serve Guatemala and its people.

At a recent meeting held at La Peña de Sol Latino in La Antigua, attendees had the opportunity to hear about the work of, among others, the Reicken Foundation, Children International, Friends of the Deaf/Voces del Silencio, Funcedescri, Asociación Corazones Unidos, NAPA OT Field School and Casa Maríia Geriatric Home.

Co-Chairs Judy Sadlier and Tamalyn Gutierrez, in celebration of the one year anniversary of the web site of La Antigua Guatemala Network, announced the name change to GUATEMALA NGO NETWORK in recognition of the need to collaborate and network throughout the country and the increasingly wider geographic scope of the work of the network participants. In addition they would like to announce the appointment of Joel Arana as the new web administrator.

They encourage all who are interested in learning more about the work of participant NGOs to go to the new web address. NGOs who are interested in joining may do so directly, in either Spanish or English, from the new web address as well: WWW.GUATEMALA-NGOS.NET
