FAQ

Q. How can i help?

A. We can’t do this alone. We want to partner with our brothers and sisters in Christ to bring hope to the people of Guatemala. Please consider donating to the cause or even bringing a team to serve and see first hand what is going on in Magdelana Milpas Altas.

Q. what is the 12x12 love project?

A. In 2008, the Steed family participated in a team at our home church in the US that oversaw the formation of the 12x12 Love Project, Inc. The 12x12 Love Project is a non-profit housing ministry that assists families living in extreme poverty in Magdalena and the surrounding villages. Through visits to Magdalena, our hearts were pulled to Guatemala as we sensed a higher purpose for our lives. 

From 2011-2016 we were responsible for daily operations of the 12x12 Love Project. At the end of 2016, the project had constructed over 200 homes and impacted thousands of lives. During this time, we observed the plight of widows and single mothers in the community and identified key themes that keep these families in a generational cycle of poverty. This helped us to realize these people did not just need a roof over their head. They needed education and training. This came to fruition with the formation of Project for Hope.
