De la Selva

Guatemala

De La Selva, founded in 1991, has empowered Guatemalans to enhance the futures of their children by providing a primarily female artisan workforce with valuable skills training and fair wages. In addition to employment, education is the major focus of their community development efforts, with goals to educate producers' children through age fifteen; helping build not just school desks, but confidence in young girls who might not otherwise have had access to school!
