At Potter’s House, we measure success in terms of relationships, not just numbers and statistics. Our ultimate goal is to see Guatemalans in healthy relationships with each other and most importantly, in relationship with God.
That every beneficiary child and youth, through their personal relationship with God, will reach the maturity they need to pursue their own holistic development and will contribute in the fight against poverty by influencing their family, community and nation.
Potter’s House is a Christ-centered organization that fights poverty in Guatemala by promoting a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ while deploying holistic development programs that focus on at-risk children and youth.
Compassion drives everything we do. At Potter’s House, our staff and servant/volunteer team works tirelessly to ensure that every individual has access to the opportunities, resources and support they need to thrive.
