The Guatemala Stove Project works with indigenous Maya families in Guatemala's Western Highlands. Our core activity is building masonry cookstoves for impoverished households in Maya villages. We are also involved in education, micro loans, emergency aid and nutrition. Our goal is to improve health for the Maya. Volunteers plan fundraising events and presentations, culminating in the annual volunteer trip to Guatemala in February. Meetings are every six weeks in Perth and Ottawa - drop in!

Guatemala Stove Project AGM
Tue, 25 Jun 2024 - Tue, 25 Jun
Time: 5:30PM
The Guatemala Stove Project is celebrating 25 years of dedication in helping impoverished Mayan families by building efficient masonry cookstoves that vent toxic fumes from their homes. The GSP also provides educational bursaries to rural girls and microloans- both actions help break the cycle of poverty. Our Annual General Meeting takes place Tues., June 25 at 5:30 at Coutts Coffee in downtown Perth. You have probably heard of this amazing grassroots project. Feel free to come by our AGM and learn more about the GSP and the 25 year connection between the Lanark highlands and the highlands of Western Guatemala.
