Every morning I look over at this barn on my way to work. Some mornings, it’s crisp and bright. Some mornings, it’s surrounded by fog.

Do you have something on your way to work that catches your eye?

❤️ please take a moment to check out what my dear friend, Erica Derrickson is doing in Guatemala.

This isn’t a big NGO campaign.
There are no grants. No corporations.

Just us 😌🌼 a group of neighbors, friends, and animal lovers doing what we can to make life a little better for the most vulnerable among us: the street dogs and village elders of Hummingbird Valley in Guatemala.

It started with one woman and one question…

About three years ago, a young woman named Gloria from the local community came to me. She told me about a group of elders in her neighborhood—some neglected, some living in deep poverty, others without family able to care for them. Her voice cracked with worry as she asked:

“Can we do something?” 🥹

We said YES.

That’s how our Elder Feeding Project was born.

Since then, every single month, we’ve delivered nourishing food baskets to the elders in our care. These baskets help close a critical gap in their nutrition and well-being. And they do more than feed the body—they remind these elders that they are seen, valued, and loved.

And the dogs? 🐶

They’re part of this story too. If you’ve ever been to Guatemala or watch my videos, you’ve probably seen them—street dogs with ribs showing, limping, injured, or frightened. These animals didn’t ask to be born into hardship. But they deserve love, care, and dignity too.

So we feed them. We get them vet care when we can.

And we can only do it with your help.

Why this matters 💞

If you love animals…
If you have a soft spot for abuelitas and abuelitos…
If you believe that our elders deserve to age with dignity…
If your life was touched by a grandparent who cared for you…

Then this is your invitation to BeTheGood: https://gofund.me/6b3d3447

Your donation goes directly to food, supplies, and care for real people and animals in our village. There’s no middleman. Just love in action.

Thank you for helping us care for those who once cared for us.

Thank you for feeding the hungry, seen and unseen.

Thank you for being the good.

With love,
Erica, Daisy 🌼 & The San Marcos Foundation team

How do you wind down? Do you watch the sunset? Release all the days regrets and resentment?
