GYTTE was founded in 1977 as a social outreach project of the Methodist
Church of Mexico to combat hunger and poverty in the rural sector. The
purpose of the "Give Ye Them to Eat" program (GYTTE) is to strengthen
the capabilities of marginalized people and communities to meet their
basic needs, and to determine and sustain a just and integrated
development process. Participatory methods and development tools are
used to create conditions in which change can take place from within
the communities. GYTTE uses people-centered approaches to
development.
Funding is needed to host courses and classes at GYTTE's "Tree of Life" Training Center. Workshops are also offered on location in the village communities.
