A little bit of context

The Colombian Amazon boasts some of the world's most remarkable natural resources. However, the indigenous people who live there are extremely poor. We believe that through education, they will improve their lives and live sustainably in one of the most beautiful jungles on Earth.

But there’s a problem

A student at a community school in the Colombian Amazon may strongly desire to attend school, but, financially, cannot. While students do not pay to attend public school, they must provide their uniforms, shoes, 12 notebooks, pens, pencils, art supplies, and other school-related expenses throughout the year. Their families cannot meet these expenses.

Here’s what we’re doing about it

The Amazon Pueblo Scholarship Program helps these students attend school. For $140 per year per student, their expenses may be covered. The Amazon Pueblo project will use the funds to purchase and distribute the materials directly to the students. The teachers will monitor each student's attendance and progress.

As an added benefit, all students attending school receive free school lunches (provided by the local government).

You can join us

We are raising funds to support at least 45 students for the 2026 school year. A $140/year scholarship per student can change a life!

And here's a fantastic perk for supporting us

A yearly update of the student’s progress, with pictures, will be emailed to the student’s sponsor.
