Fundación Familia Maya (FUNDAMAYA) was born from the vision of a group of indigenous Guatemalan, Australian, and American friends wanting to make a difference for those most in need. Now, more than 14 years later, we have an even greater desire to help the Guatemalan communities we call home.
We are a center specialized in Tutoring, Therapy for children with Disabilities or Learning Disabilities, Timely Stimulation, School Accompaniment, Teacher Training, Diagnostic Evaluation and Counseling for Parents and Educational Centers in Antigua Guatemala and its surroundings.
We have individualized or group therapies. These include: Language, neuromotor, academic and independence. The therapies can be group or individual depending on the needs of each student and the initial evaluation that we make.
Partner for Surgery serves with the goal to improve health, empower communities, and overcome barriers. We are on the front lines of medical and surgical care in rural Guatemala focusing on bringing quality health care and surgical solutions to where most impoverished Guatemalans live. Our service model allows us to bridge language, distance, and cultural barriers. And our health promoters, staff, volunteers, and donors all partner to ensure our programs secure the solution each patient needs, from the time we meet them in their communities until we return home with them after surgery.
We work in rural areas of Guatemala contributing in training focused on women and children, guaranteeing the availability of water, sanitation and hygiene.
