This beautiful house is a self built innovation called UPYA, a redesign of a slum in el Pozon, fully crowdfunded through Global Giving.

1. Donate & GiveWe crowdfund often. By helping us get your network to donate, you enable some of our most critical progress. You can donate to a specific project or you can give a small recurring donation monthly to enable our growth. How about just 1 dollar per day?

2. Become Angel InvestorsOne of our greatest innovations was to create an incubator for entrepreneurs with vulnerable backrounds. We discovered huge talents and potentials, so we designed a way to pair projects with Angel Investors. We usually need small amounts of money, to develop a great small company. Find out more!
