Community Coordinator
“I live in a village in San Marcos. I like to help children a lot and I am a housewife, I have 2 children and I have a calling in Primary. I have been a coordinator for 4 years. I like to help in everything that they ask of me. It is a pleasure for me to see so many smiles from the children and so much satisfaction from the mothers receiving their supplements. It is great to be part of such a beautiful work.” –Amelia
