My wife and my two favorite acquisitionists

WuquKawoq is a great non-government organization that does health development work in Guatemala. Uniquely, WK not only improves people’s health and lives through medicine, but by being committed to cultural and linguistic vitality. All of their work is done using local Mayan languages like Kaqchikel and K’ichee and in partnership with local midwives and other indigenous health professionals. I’ve been on their board of directors since 2007. Check them out!
