“There is a conflict of interest (coi) policy both for board members and for employees. Board members sign a statement annually that they have read, understand, and comply with the coi policy. If a board member or employee has reasonable cause to believe that another board member or employee has failed to disclose actual or possible coi, he or she informs that person of the basis for such belief and affords the member or employee an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If further investigation is warranted, the board chair or the chief executive officer takes appropriate action depending on the circumstances.”

“Line 1, continued we transform how literacy skills are taught in public primary schools, so all children can have access to a quality education, the opportunity to improve their lives, and contribute to their communities and the world. We focus on rural villages where illiteracy disproportionately affects indigenous maya people, especially women, and in early grades where education has the largest impact on literacy and overall life chances. In the rural highlands of the states of solol, totonicapn and chimaltenango, we train teachers with school-wide workshops and one-on-one classroom coaching, and provide spanish-language, grade appropriate books. Line 4a, continued in 2020: 1.when the covid-19 pandemic caused intense food insecurity in guatemala in general and in the communities where we work in particular, we pivoted to add the temporary provision of emergency food to our school. We raised separate funds for our white flag hunger relief program which distributed approximately 7,000 boxes of food to families in need. We used the distribution system we use to distribute books each year to get these food boxes to the families most in need in our school communities. We also trained the school personnel to use covid safety protocols throughout the distribution. 2.schools in guatemala were closed early on in the pandemic (march 2020) and remained so throughout the remainder of the school year (which runs january - october). Teachers, however, continued to be paid by the government and had responsibilities to do their best to continue working with their students. Child aid switched immediately to providing our workshops via zoom; we have a 95% participation rate in these workshops. We also provided coaching sessions - via zoom or phone - to help teachers craft worksheets that teachers could share with their students.”
