Last March, I had the opportunity to travel to Chajul, a tiny village in rural Guatemala, through my high school’s global education program. Working with local charity Limitless Horizons Ixiles, we undertook various service initiatives, including distributing dental hygiene supplies at a school for impoverished children. Working as a group, we developed a Spanish language lesson to teach the Chajulense children how to brush their teeth and the importance of dental hygiene. In the end, we were able to distribute over 500 toothbrushes and toothpaste tubes! We are so grateful to our donors and partners for making our work possible, and we’re excited to continue promoting dental hygiene access and education.
