Konojel

Konojel means “All Together” in the local language of Katchiquel. Beginning in 2011, Konojel has been providing nutritious, free lunches to 60 of the most at risk in the community of San Marcos. To this day, beneficiaries of the lunch program are selected based on nutritional need and screened through a team of indigenous and medical personnel. JUSTA has partnered with Konojel since their beginning, and assisted in expanding their programing to include programs in children’s education, sustainability, and women’s empowerment.
