August 2020

On the occasion of our annual fundraiser, we produced this video showing testimonials from women who - through the education offered by Fundación Avanzar - have been able to improve life for themselves and their families. In addition, we highlight two women entrepreneurs who created their respective companies after completing various courses offered by Fundación Avanzar and succeeded in creating jobs for other women, thus furthering the economic welfare of entire communities.

Spring 2020: Our support in times of coronavirus

The situation around the coronavirus in Ecuador is still dramatic. Not only is Ecuador one of the most affected countries in Latin America and has suffered in a brutal way with many victims from the pandemic, but also the lockdown deeply affects an economy that was already very weak before SARS Cov-2 came into our lives. Therefore, the support of ONG’s like Avanzar is currently more important than ever before. 

2019: Celebrating our 20th Anniversary

For 20 years now, FUNDACION AVANZAR has been supporting underprivileged women living in precarious conditions in Ecuador. In this video you can see how it all began and where the journey has led until today. 

The figures speak for themselves: We have enabled 1,000 women through education to lead a self-determined and dignified life in financial independence. At the Ludoteca in the Hospital Vicente Corral Moscoso, 30,000 children have been treated with therapies and have had a smile put on their faces. 30 volunteers from different countries work on site. 5 NGOs have received financial support. Over the past 20 years, FUNDACION AVANZAR has grown from a small idea to an organization now indispensable in Cuenca and employs 7 people in their administration.
