San Lucas Toliman Scholars

San Lucas Toliman Scholars Sponsor bright, needy students in San Lucas Tolimán, Guatemala. Please visit our web site: sltscholars.org

"SLT Scholars" was founded to meet the expressed felt need of the people in the small town of San Lucas Toliman, in the Mayan highlands of Guatemala. Parents wanted their children to go on to secondary school, but many couldn't, because they had to pay school fees.
