Guatemala Stove Project Fundraising Dance
7:00pm – 11:55pm
Perth Civitan Hall, door open at 7pm. Featuring “Under the Covers”. Silent Auction and snacks. Annual Guatemala Stove Project Fundraising Dance
Come on out and dance for a great cause! On Saturday, November 18 the Guatemala Stove Project is hosting a fundraising dance featuring talented local music scene stalwarts Under the Covers. This band will have you up on your feet and dancing all night.
This annual fundraiser will feature a silent auction of unique items crafted by local artisans or donated by local businesses.
The Guatemala Stove Project, a volunteer-based organization is continuing its efforts to raise funds for the construction of masonry cook stoves for impoverished, rural Mayan families. Over 6,000 stoves have been built so far creating a lasting legacy for rural families in the western highlands of Guatemala. Consider that a single stove extends the lives of each family member in a household by 10 – 15 years and reduces the amount of firewood needed by half which helps to preserve the country’s precious forests.
The Guatemala Stove Project also supports sustainable-development projects in over a dozen communities and issues micro-loans to indigenous women to start small businesses that will help lift them out of poverty. The Guatemala Stove Project recognizes the importance of education in creating opportunity and hope for the future. It provides scholarships to several students who would otherwise not have this opportunity.
You’ve heard about the GSP and maybe you have even made a donation in the past. Now is the time to show your support for the indigenous people in Guatemala. Bring your dancing shoes to the Perth Civitan Club for this fantastic licensed fundraising event! Mark the date on your calendar and get your tickets! Tickets: $20 at Shadowfax in Perth or at the door. Civitan Hall doors open at 7 p.m. Under The Covers starts playing at 8 p.m.

The Guatemala Stove Project, a volunteer-based organization is continuing its efforts to raise funds for the construction of masonry cook stoves for impoverished, rural Mayan families. Over 6,000 stoves have been built so far creating a lasting legacy for rural families in the western highlands of Guatemala. Consider that a single stove extends the lives of each family member in a household by 10 – 15 years and reduces the amount of firewood needed by half which helps to preserve the country’s precious forests.
The Guatemala Stove Project also supports sustainable-development projects in over a dozen communities and issues micro-loans to indigenous women to start small businesses that will help lift them out of poverty. The Guatemala Stove Project recognizes the importance of education in creating opportunity and hope for the future. It provides scholarships to several students who would otherwise not have this opportunity.
You’ve heard about the GSP and maybe you have even made a donation in the past. Now is the time to show your support for the indigenous people in Guatemala. Bring your dancing shoes to the Perth Civitan Club for this fantastic licensed fundraising event! Mark the date on your calendar and get your tickets! Tickets: $20 at Shadowfax in Perth or at the door. Civitan Hall doors open at 7 p.m. Under The Covers starts playing at 8 p.m.
