Community Name & History
El Triunfo means "The Triumph" in Spanish. The members of the community decided to use this name after they triumphantly managed to get a school built in their community. It was a big achievement for them with many setbacks along the way.
Life & Culture
As with most of our Guatemalan communities, coffee is the predominant crop in this community. Corn and beans are additional crops grown on some of the land. Some community members have a vision to raise cattle and fish in the future.
This community is very united with members that work well together. Originally, the community was started by two families so most members have the surname Solis or Saucedo.
