Proyecto Itzaes is one of the few long-term educational projects in Yucatan, supported by a non-profit organization. For us, it is a pleasure to be able to collaborate as a University (ENES-Merida, UNAM) in their actions, such as the Science Fair, in which we can share what our students learn with the people who live in the localities where Proyecto Itzaes reaches, but also in their summer courses, regular classes or special projects such as the observation of eclipses that we will see in 2023 and 2024 in the Yucatán Peninsula.
Como habitante de la comunidad de Ixil, es satisfactorio observar que exista un sitio donde los niños puedan realizar actividades que ayudan al aprendizaje y al recreo; es una buena manera de acercarlos a la naturaleza, a la educación y a la convivencia.
Mención especial a los colaboradores Jessica y Francisco, gracias por tanto, perdón por tan poco, los niños están agradecidos con ellos por todo lo que aportan aunque no se lo digan mucho.
Hola me llamo Diego Uitzil, originario de Dzemul, Yucatán.
Actualmente me desempeño en el Proyecto Itzaez como maestro de música, especialmente en canto y guitarra.
Actualmente cuento con 5 adolescentes, con los cuales trabajamos en recuperación de la música Trova, para recuperar las tradiciones de la localidad.
Es una muy buena institución, ya que motiva los niños, jóvenes y adolescentes a poder hacer algo más productivos, e incrementar conocimientos y habilidades.
My company has a charitable program through which we partner with charitable organizations in places we visit for meetings and conventions. We had 2 groups visit Cancun this spring. Anytime we're outside the US, it can be difficult finding a charity that meets our criteria. Our partnership with Proyecto Itzaes was most gratifying and we were excited to raise enough money for them purchase a vehicle to transport educational resources to remote areas. One huge plus in working with PI is that they are a registered US 501(c)(3), which means all donations are tax deductible in the US. Everyone we dealt with representing the organization was knowledgeable and great to work with.
