Fundación Esperanza de México

Our partner, Fundación Esperanza de México, A.C. is a non-profit organization registered in México with no religious or political affiliations, founded in 1990. Together, we harness volunteer sweat equity to stimulate sustainable development of Mexican families by building homes in solidarity with one another.

If you have come here to help me, you are wasting your time.
But if you have come because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let us work together.
- Lilla Watson, Indigenous Australian artist, activist and academic
