My Nonprofit Reviews

One of the things I like best about Sexto Sol is that they reach many isolated people in the high Sierra Madre mountains of Chiapas, Mexico. These people, many of them small-scale coffee farmers, have been battered by a number of hurricanes, mudslides and economically by the effects of the international coffee market volatility. Sexto Sol has helped many of the villages build more secure fresh water systems that have been damaged by these extreme weather events. I had the opportunity to travel with Tamara to one of these villages. She has a wonderful rapport with the them and provides invaluable support not only on water supply issues but school resources and even development of ecotourism.
