Every one of us has a source of inspiration that keeps us going, striving for a brighter tomorrow. For some, it’s the well-being of our children. For others, it’s shaping the world for generations to come. No matter the circumstance, we all share the same dream – to see the people we love flourish and thrive. 

Araceli (on the rigth) is one of the women participating in the MARES savings groups. Along with her goal to generate investment for their micro-businesses, meet unexpected expenses, and address needs to enhance their family conditions, she also sees the monthly sessions as an opportunity to learn eco-friendly cultivation techniques and explore healthy cooking alternatives to improve family nutrition.

Mabel  is motivated to:  Continue her entrepreneurial journey”

At the age of 17, Mabel enrolled in the 8th generation of SiKanda’s Mujeres A.V.E. project, participating in the training and mentorship of women with micro-businesses in the Zaachila Oriente area. Despite being the youngest member in a group of women of all ages, she is an active participant in the Collective formed by graduates of the training process.

“We realized that women can work together and uplift one another”

Mabel’s motivation extends beyond her business of crafting bracelets with chaquira beads and laminated gold; this activity also serves as a means of support for her mother’s household expenses. Girls, boys, and women from the state of Oaxaca share this year’s theme in our fundraising campaign. It is an invitation to find deep connections with the motivations of others who, in one way or another, confront adversity and continue to strive for greater well-being.

It’s your turn!
