A Little Book on the Women of Friendship Bridge

10 November 2007 at 16:36 1 comment

We’re back in the US now, but Nancy and I thought you’d like to see our little book. We were so taken with the wonderful women of Guatemala and their inspiring stories that we compiled the stories and pictures into a little book. It’s only 40 pages, not much of a book, but it does a pretty decent job of capturing what’s really happening with Friendship Bridge and Kiva.

The book is a free pdf download that you can read on your computer (or print out if you want).

    Thank you so much — beautiful work!

    I am struck by how many of these families are missing their men. I live among the Mopan, and here most families retain their men. Is this a bigger problem in Quiche, or is the proportion artificially high due to the loan selection process?

    Thanks again. Beautiful.
