Invitation to all our fans to post comments
Ladies and Gentlemen, put you hands together for our ten superstar students: Collin, Patrick, Stephanie, Cindy, Zach, Zoe, Jeremiah, Tiye, Candice and Natalia!
In 10 short days we will be embarking on our 7-day Human Rights Delegation in the highlands of Guatemala. We will be traveling with local NGO Global Exchange to explore topics such as fair trade, the peace process, education, and maya revitalization. Much love to everyone (donors, families, friends, teachers and staff) for supporting urban youth empowerment!
When I was in high school, my interests were much more about who drives and cute boys (or cute boys who drive) and much less about human rights in Guatemala. For this and many other reasons, big ups to my ten students for their maturity and pursuit of knowledge.
During the delegation, we will be posting on this blog to share our experiences with you all. Please check back often and post lots of comments and questions so we know our voices are being heard and so that we can share what we learn.
I invite you now to post a comment with well wishes, celebrations and words of support. Or post a comment with questions about human rights in Guatemala that you'd like us to explore while we're there. Simply click on "Comments" directly below this post.
Thanks again to everyone who played a part in making our delegation a reality!
Much love - Melanie

I'm just getting the ball rolling with the comments. Buena suerte to us!
Ten more days:-)
Que les vaya bien!
Take care of Melanie. Make sure she eats enough food.
good luck to you all, i just heard about your trip. the experience will probably and hopefully blow your mind.
i've been to guatemala, and there's a few things you should think about while you there: how are woman treated differently than men? does everyone get to go to school, or only some people- who?, if kids don't go to school, what do they do all day?, why do people that don't have that much money have maids?
another funny question that's got nothing to do with human rights- where do you put the toilet paper?
enjoy

My dear Guatemala delegates,
I just wanted to drop a line to express how proud I feel to have worked with you all to make this trip possible. It has been my true plessure to meet you the other night and put a face to your names. I feel priviledge to work with such a young and passinate group and to show what the reality is in our global south. I know that this experience will be charged of emotions and I trully hope that you all feel empower to create a more just and peaceful world bit by bit. Enjoy you trip. With much love, Cristina.
Congratulations and Happy Trails! It is clear that you all have worked hard to make this trip happen. My hope for all of you is that during this amazing trip you learn as much as you can. Soak it all in and then bring back what you learn to the students and families in your communities.
Have fun learning...
To the young delegates:
Enjoy an enlightening experience that will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression. You will come away with a perspective on human rights that even most adults fail to grasp. Keep an open mind, learn all you can, and most of all, have fun.
Don't worry about Melanie and food. She'll get her fill or probably eat yours if you don't finish it.
Cheers,
Mark
Thanks so much to Melanie for making this happen for our students at LHS!! We are lucky to have you! Have a wonderful, safe trip.

Clark and Linda Trevor
