We implement vocational training in sewing, welding, construction skills, and computer repair to adults who were not able to complete their education. Becoming skilled laborers allows them to increase their income and improve their quality of life.
Our vocational sewing program has blossomed into a Fair-Trade cooperative, named Manos de Maya, where women in the community create clothes, tote bags and other beautiful items made from traditional handwoven Mayan fabrics. These women are working together to build a better future for themselves and their families. Visit Manos de Maya Website
