My Nonprofit Reviews

i’ve been deeply involved with MAIA for several years. It is an exceptional organization helping indigenous Mayan girls find their voice, get an education, and gain access to the broader economy, and thereby Secure a better future for themselves, their families, their communities, in the world at large. MAIA offers so much more than an opportunity to “give“; it offers a chance to partner with the community in securing opportunity that can permanently change the trajectory for other people.

I first became involved with MAIA in 2016, when one of the directors agreed to mentor my high school daughter in getting involved with nonprofit organizations. My family quickly became familiar with the importance of MAIA's mission (the education and empowerment of young girls and women in Guatemala) and its extraordinary leadership. Over the past several years we have remained involved as volunteers and supporters. We visited the MAIA school in Solola, Guatemala last summer; this year, my daughter is serving a volunteer intern at the school. MAIA is an exceptional, and exceptionally well-managed, nonprofit. Its mission is extremely important and we feel proud and honored to play a small part in it.
