To improve the lives of rural families in Guatemala by creating libraries that evolve into centers for learning, empowerment, and community development.

Community libraries and reading centers that also work as learning cores for the children and their families
Comunitecas are community libraries that allow users to access a diversity of information and provide spaces for community coexistence. The Comunitecas promote education through programs directed to early childhood, boys and girls in school age, young women, parents, community leaders, and villagers.
Did you know? In recent years, our Comunitecas have ceased to be places exclusively for lending books and have become active centers for learning, information, and culture.
Our Comunitecas have become an important ally for the local schools to improve the quality of education and promote development through a participatory approach.
