Empower Guatemala

Empower Guatemala is a community-focused organization working to improve health and strengthen relationships in rural Guatemalan communities. Its mission is to expand access to clean air and safe drinking water while fostering connection with local churches and neighbors. The organization addresses the health risks associated with unsafe water and traditional open-fire cooking, which can expose families to parasites and harmful indoor smoke.

Empower Guatemala provides household stoves and water filters as practical solutions. These products help families access cleaner air and filtered water, while also saving resources and supporting women and community wellbeing. The organization reports that its work has reached more than 30,300 people, supplied 5,061 stoves and water filters, and involved 645 team members over 17 years.

Its approach is built on partnerships, volunteerism, and long-term engagement. Supporters can donate to fund clean water or cleaner cooking for households, raise money, join a service team, or contribute through prayer. Empower Guatemala invites individuals and communities to help extend these benefits to more families across Guatemala.
