Mission

We create sustainable solutions to end generational poverty by educating and empowering girls and inspiring the international community to join the global movement

About Our Environmental Education

On an island where climate change impacts day to day life, environmental education is crucial to creating strong future leaders. Experiencing nature firsthand teaches children to love and care for the environment, ensuring that they will grow into environmentally conscious adults. Mariposas learn earth science and ecology through field trips to the surrounding ecosystems. Our growing list of activities include gardening, nature hikes, surfing, SUP and beach cleanup. We also have a River keepers program, where the Mariposas are stewards of the nearby river, La Yásica.
