Als Privatperson hat in 2001 Dorle Wagner (picture in the middle, second from the left) started, as a private person, to raise funds for the work of Padre Herman and Madre Puri from the catholic order in San Cristobal.

From the beginning she cooperated with Madre Puri, who has been running the institution for 7 years in a self-sacrificing way. She knows how to use the little funds that are at her disposal in an intelligent way and as justly as possible. They keep in touch by means of visits, letters and e-mails.

Padre Herman Sierras (Picture in the middle, first from the right, and picture on the right hand) takes care of an area of 198 sqkm in the highlands of the Mayas.
The born “Ladino” (a Ladino-mestizo is an American Indian with European ancestry) is in charge of the organisation of the relief projects, arranges “land buy-back”, supervises the investments in the long run and is also very popular amongst the natives.

Since 2006 Sabine Kemper (picture in the middle, first from the left) is another committed co-operator.
She got her own picture of the situation when she travelled to Guatemala in spring 2007. Projekthilfe-Guatemala e.V. was founded in 2007 in Germany by Dorle W. und Sabine K.
