Mil Milagros works in rural Guatemala to discover leaders, develop their potential, and deliver results.
Imagine yourself as a woman in rural Guatemala.
You, like most Indigenous Maya women, never had the chance to finish primary school. You work hard caring for your children, but no one sees your effort.
When you speak, racism and misogyny cause you to be ignored.
Now imagine that you're invited to a space where people listen to you.
Here, they hear your struggles and help you discover your voice. You share what you are learning with your family and community.
This is how leaders are made.

The causes and effects of poverty are multidimensional and require a comprehensive approach. As part of our approach, we build strategic alliances with other organizations to address needs in our partner communities that are outside our immediate purview, including access to water, health care, and school and home construction.
