Fundación Comunidades CIELO A.C. - CIELO Communities Foundation Information

Cielo Communities Foundation (Cielo Foundation - Fundación Cielo) is a non-profit registered in USA and Mexico. Our vision is to alleviate poverty, promote gender equality and inspire social entrepreneurship that transforms society. Our work, for now, is mainly focused on native Mayan communities in the Yucatan peninsula. We strongly promote Education as a mean to advance society. We work closely with local government officials, NGO’s, Academic Institutions and the private sector to improve living conditions, generate sustainable job opportunities, promote formal education and environment conservation. We are part of the greater Cielo Family, a group of organizations that share the same values and philosophy. Our Cielo Family includes: Cielo Hammocks (Formerly Hammock Boutique), Cielo Hamacas, Cielo Foundation and Cielo Adventure (in the works). Cielo Foundation is instrumental to our award winning Social Impact model by Google, VentrueScale and ANA "SHE Network" (Sustainable Holistic Empowerment Network). To learn more visit our website. Some of our workshops and programs include sexual education for teenagers, literacy classes for adults, English for children, training for midwives, drug, violence and alcoholism workshops, scholarship funds for advanced education, amongst others. Our goal is to alleviate poverty and end the generational cycle of poverty in artisan communities across the globe.
