My Nonprofit Reviews

I had a wonderful opportunity to see first hand the work that El Porvenir administers and supports in Nicaragua. I accompanied a group on a Donors Impact tour to visit several communities with clean water systems, washing stations, and latrines all installed under the auspices of El Porvenir. These installations have changed the lives of entire villages by providing access to clean water and sanitation faculties. Critically, the villagers themselves must initiate interest, provide a portion of capital, and devote “sweat equity” during installation. Local Nicaraguans manage the education and installation, and the villagers themselves are responsible for maintaining the systems. For El Porvenir to accomplish this life changing work, on a shoestring budget compared to many nonprofits, persuades me to become a continuing supporter of this important mission.
