Our Pillars

Education

Through Aprender y Crecer, we provide school supplies, books, valuable resources, and services to students and teachers at public primary schools to enhance the educational experience and outcomes for elementary students. Additionally, we have other programs where we support alternative secondary education and technical higher education.

Economic Opportunity

Helping disadvantaged populations in accessing skills, guidance, market information, and connections needed to secure decent livelihoods through formal employment or successful small and medium enterprises. Additionally, we support women to ensure their ventures thrive.

Community Resilience

Addressing core community needs that underpin families’ ability to withstand adversity by meeting ongoing needs such as food insecurity and lack of safe community spaces, or responding to acute crises such as climate and health emergencies.
