BUILD Guatemala March 2009 Trip

In March 2009, BUILD sent a team of 14 students to its current partner community, Santa Anita la Union, a 160-person fair trade, organic coffee and banana cooperative located in Quetzaltenango. BUILD spent eight days in the community, allowing a new groups of students to conduct individual research, and granting team leaders enough time to further plans for more than a dozen projects involving BUILD, Santa Anita, and local NGO FUNDAP.
