When you Sponsor a Mayan Child...
...you invest in the future. Your contribution goes far because you not only help your sponsored child realise his or her dreams, you also help the entire community. |
AMOR´s mission - Arnulfo G. Oxlaj´s dream - isn´t a mere shell. but a mountain where treasure is hidden that anyone can find; it´s a journey full of mystery, adventure and enchantment. It transforms lives and communities, giving health and freedom and exercise of rights to the young and old, the poor and disenfranchised. It helps young people realise their mission by using their gifts in the world.
AMOR provides aid with a view to promoting self-sustainability and opportunity, and at the same time we promote social justice and child, women's and indigenous rights, and build inclusive societies by means of education, organisation, and visionary leadership training to empower the poor and marginalised to have a voice in shaping the policies and institutions that affect their lives. AMOR works with partner organisations in impoverished indigenous communities in Guatemala with a strong focus on vulnerable women and youth, delivering not only poverty relief but also programmes with strong local government buy-in that help give disenfranchised citizens a voice. AMOR is deeply rooted in the Quiché area, the birthplace of its founder. Consequently, our organisation is well embedded in the area and has worked for years in getting to know and win the trust of its women and communities. |
