Chipila-Chiuleu

Chipila has partnered with 410 since 2020 and speaks Spanish. Chipila, in Kaqchik a Mayan language, means "wash station by the road." In the past when homes did not have individual water taps, women would go to a local wash station in this area to wash. Thus, that is what the community came to be called. This area is known for its production of coffee. Women in the community weave clothing and make costumes typically worn for certain celebrations. The community has very positive leaders and they work hard for the benefit of the community.
