Programs described in its return (4)
  1. $72,810 spent. Holistic Development: This program provides spiritual, educational, and nutritional support to children living in communities affected by poverty and chronic malnutrition. In 2024, UNUM International served over 930 children across four communities. Spiritual discipleship was offered twice weekly for 10 months to 210 students, each following a personalized spiritual curriculum. Academic support was provided to 600 students through tutoring three times per week. An additional 120 middle school students participated in weekly technology and physical education classes. To address physical hunger, over 60,000 meals were served to children and families throughout the year.
  2. $71,793 spent. Mission Teams: This program mobilizes short-term volunteers from partner churches and communities to serve alongside UNUM's team in Guatemala, supporting outreach, construction, education, and discipleship efforts. In 2024, UNUM hosted five mission trips in 2024, welcoming over 100 volunteers. These teams assisted with local development efforts, children's ministry, construction projects, and discipleship events, providing vital encouragement and labor in support of UNUM's long-term community development strategy.
  3. $33,000 spent. Global Fund: The Global Fund financially supports the expansion and implementation of UNUM International's holistic care model in underserved communities around the world. In 2024, the Global Fund enabled the implementation of UNUM's programs in four Guatemalan communities, covering logistics, staffing, and programmatic expenses. It also supported the coordination of five international mission trips and provided infrastructure support for the organization's coffee-based sustainability initiative.
  4. $19,394 spent. Other Programs: Leadership Development equips young leaders with academic, spiritual, and leadership training to prepare them for long-term impact in their communities. In 2024 eight students enrolled in UNUM's college-level leadership program received tuition, educational supplies, and participated in spiritual formation and leadership conferences. In addition, 25 high school seniors graduated from the R12 program, a discipleship-based leadership development initiative. Coffee Program: This social enterprise initiative supports economic development and long-term sustainability by selling coffee grown in partnership with local farmers. This revenue contributes to our education, nutrition programs and leadership development for children and families. This approach allows us to address both physical and spiritual hunger while empowering entire communities to thrive. In 2024 UNUM processed and distributed over 200 pounds of coffee, supporting ministry operations and generating awareness for its mission. Our coffee initiative continues to grow fueling our vision of a Guatemala free from hunger, malnutrition and the limitations of illiteracy.
