The God’s Child Project is an organization based out of Bismarck, N.D., started by MSUM alumnus Patrick Atkinson. Since it began in 1991, the project has worked to clothe, feed, and educate children and families in Guatemala. It now cares for and educates 4,000 orphaned, abandoned, and poverty-stricken children, and nearly 9,000 widowed, abandoned, and single mothers and their dependents in many of our world’s poorest neighborhoods.

Crafts include beaded jewelry, handmade tote bags and purses, scarves, Christmas decorations, etc., all made from families in Guatemala. Click headline for more information.
