Where We Serve

Rural Schools

CoEd programs serve rural Guatemala, mainly in the country’s Central and Western Highlands. Program regions are inhabited primarily by indigenous Mayan Indians and plagued by systemic poverty, illiteracy, and inequality. The school systems in these communities are under-resourced and typically neglected by government support structures.

Since 1996, CoEd has enriched the lives of more than 26,000 youths through the Textbook Program, more than 16,900 students through Computer Centers, and more than 4,800 children through the Culture of Reading Program (CORP).
