A Second Chance

Transforming Lives in Guatemala, One Second Chance

Meet Dany—a young man from Guatemala whose story reminds us why second chances are so powerful.

Growing up in Guatemala is tough. Despite starting school with support from our organization, life became difficult, and he dropped out. A year later, he came back and asked for a second chance.

We said yes - because he earned it.

For three years, Dany worked part-time while balancing his studies. With inew found resilience, incredible dedication and hard work, he persevered. Today, he is a graduate with a certification equivalent to an associate degree in the U.S., ready to take on the world of accounting and continue his education and prepare a future that he didn’t know was possible.

In Dany’s words to us:
"Thank you for helping me in my studies and teaching me to be independent. This has been a blessing in my life. I’m so grateful for your support!"
