Together we can build the dream of peace. |
|
AMOR (originally Action for Mayan ORphans) is a for-purpose organisation and global educational partner that helps educate and empower young people to transform lives and end poverty and injustice, primarily in Guatemala and the UK. We go where other organisations cannot to build schools and community hubs from where to defend the rights of the most powerless and persecuted, with a focus on women/girls and vulnerable children.
AMOR is the dream of Founder Arnulfo Fernando Oxlaj. The only survivor of a massacre in his village in which 115 children perished, Arnulfo resolved to transform that tragedy into peace, to help his people rise out of the ashes of genocide and contribute their gifts to the world.
AMOR helps rebuild lives and communities destroyed by war, poverty or exclusion, and stands up with them to be counted through our revolutionary Community Transformation Model, Afretlain.
Above all, AMOR is a dream of peace.

Message from the Founder
My name is Arnulfo Fernando Gómez Oxlaj. I´m a native American, a Mayan whose soul cries out with those of my ancestors when every day I see children born into the world condemned to be beggars, without a space, without freedom and without hope. It's time to change this, together. |
