Last Thursday we hosted Trae Holland, Executive Director, and Anna Marie Klein Christie, Director of International Development, of Safe Passage. Safe Passage provides education, health services, and other much needed support to families who live in extreme poverty around the Guatemala City dump. Trae provided a history of his personal involvement in Safe Passage and shared some of the remarkable stories of survival and perseverance from the individuals they help.
