Approximately twenty-three thousand people died, seventy-six thousand were injured and there were more of one million victims.[4]After the 1976 Guatemala earthquake, the Foundation took over the reconstruction of the school in the municipality of San Crist\u00f3bal Totonicap\u00e1n, which the inhabitants baptized under the name of the “Juan Bautista Guti\u00e9rrez” School; in fact, the Foundation has been active in the operation of the school since then.

The government of President Alfonso Portillo decreed a state of public calamity to mobilize international aid; officially forty-eight fatalities were recognized, but there were rumors of a much higher number.During the food crisis that has been recorded in Jocot\u00e1n, Camot\u00e1n and Olopa, Chiquimula, many private organizations joined the common cause of help. One of them was the Juan Bautista Gutierrez Foundation[6] who generated sources of support for these communities.[7]Hurricane Mitch[edit]As in the rest of Central America, Hurricane Mitch caused heavy rains that caused landslides and severe flooding, which destroyed six thousand houses and damaged another twenty thousand, forcing the evacuation of more than one hundred thousand people; In addition, floods caused severe crop damage while landslides destroyed arable land throughout the country.4 Transport infrastructure was also damaged, as 1,350\u00a0km of roads were destroyed or damaged. In total, the hurricane caused two hundred and sixty-eight deaths in Guatemala.To help the victims of the hurricane, the Juan Bautista Guti\u00e9rrez Foundation provided eighty thousand bags of food in Guatemala, and thirty thousand in Honduras.[8]2015 Hospital Crisis[edit]On 27 May 2015, in the midst of the acute administrative and political crisis caused by the corruption cases of “La Linea” and “IGSS-Pisa[9]” discovered by the International Commission against Impunity in Guatemala, the deficit became evident that affected national hospitals and that prevented the acquisition of food, medicines, payment of services and acquisition of surgical material.The necessary budget for the proper functioning of the hospitals was four hundred and eighty-three million quetzals, but the budget allocated by the Ministry of Public Health and Social Assistance of Guatemala for 2015 was only two hundred eighty-two million quetzals; They also indicated that it was urgent for the Ministry of Health to pay the debt of one hundred and thirty-three million in 2014, which increased the deficit to 54%[10]At the end of 2015, the Juan Bautista Guti\u00e9rrez Foundation promoted the #GuatePorElRoosevelt movement together with Pollo Campero and Corporaci\u00f3n Multi Inversiones (CMI) to make a contribution and reduce the hospital crisis in the country.[11][12]Educational programs[edit]The Foundation maintains several educational programs, among which are:References[edit]External links[edit]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki19\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki19\/juan-bautista-gutierrez-foundation-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Juan Bautista Guti\u00e9rrez Foundation – Wikipedia"}}]}]
