We provide financial and other support to help both domestic and international communities recover when natural disasters strike or other humanitarian crises arise.

 

Cultivating & catalyzing youth leaders

Our story began back in 2009 when two young activists responded to the urgent need of Central America’s youth to learn the skills needed to confront mounting injustices and growing uncertainty as a result of rising inequality and climate change. Using education and leadership as main tools, we started a process to engage and mobilize young people to take action. Our mission is to cultivate and catalyze youth leaders to build more just and sustainable communities in Guatemala and El Salvador. 

Young people become influential and impactful leaders. By providing them with resources, skills, and support services, we encourage active engagement towards improving health and educational outcomes, reducing inequality, and spurring economic growth – all while building resilience and protecting our ecosystems.

Together, they form a movement of leaders who drive sustainability and democracy, who are involved in decision making, addressing social challenges, and creating new solutions. They are changing the course of their communities.
