In Guatemala, Indigenous girls face a reality that demands our urgent attention—one in which access to quality education is unattainable and frequently regarded as a privilege rather than a basic human right.
But together, we can change this reality. At the MAIA Impact School , we educate and transform lives. Here, her future starts today.
Every year at the MAIA Impact School, we welcome a new generation of Girl Pioneers to open them to a realm of new opportunities by educating them and exposing them to a world of what is possible. It is a transformative journey that changes the trajectory of the future of their lives, families, and the broader community.
With your investment, these remarkable young women will break cycles of poverty and build a brighter future—one where they can graduate from high school, choose when and if to start a family, access better job opportunities, and empower themselves and future generations to thrive.
Her future starts today! DONATE NOW and be the spark that ignites change for Girl Pioneers on their transformative journey!
Angela, Linda, Alexandra, Wendy, Eleany, and Betzayda are six MAIA Girl Pioneers who are redefining the trajectory of their lives, families, and the broader community’s future. They are a testament that when women have access to education, they become empowered, break poverty cycles, and can transform the world.
