Wish List

Our move is coming up soon!

We were told that the house will be ready for us on October 8th (hopefully all the work will be done by then) so we are working on getting things ready on our end. We are slowly packing things up, sorting through things to get rid of stuff we don't need, and we are making lists of things we will need to get after we make the move.

The plan is for us to spend a couple weeks getting settled in the new house and purchasing the stuff for our after-school program before we start having kids over.

 As the time is getting closer, we are getting more and more anxious for the after-school program to be up and running. The school year here in Guatemala runs from mid-January to mid-October so this school year is coming to an end, but that gives us an excellent opportunity to start with a more laid-back program of playing games, and getting to know the kids before school starts up and we have more structure and organization.

In preparation for all of this, we want to get books, games, puzzles, Legos and other toys that will be used for the program. We know that many people would love to be able to help out with these needs so here is our Amazon Wish List (click here). If this is something you would like to help with, you can purchase or donate any of the items on our list or you can donate any other lightly used items that you think would be a good addition to the program. We are very happy to get used items so if you find any of the items on the Wish List for a better price used, that would be great!

A few things to keep in mind: 

1) We will have kids between the ages of 6 and 13 so remember that when picking out items to donate

2) Books need to be in Spanish or Spanish/English bilingual books
3) Any used puzzles should not have missing pieces


Last, we also want to be able to work on math concepts with the kids and the Rocket Math program was recommended to me by a friend. I looked into it a bit more and think it would be a great addition to our program. We would like to purchase a subscription to that so if you would like to help us with that cost, please contact us. 

We are not able to receive packages easily here in Guatemala so if you are interested in helping, please email us at abrubaker@pushtherock.org or krishauna@hopeforhome.org and we will give you instructions for where to have it sent so it can be brought down to us. We also want to be sure we know what items are being purchased or donated so we can update the list as needed. 

Thank you for your prayers and support!

Andi and Krishauna
