Eagle Condor Humanitarian (ECH) is committed to implementing lasting solutions to break generational poverty for children, families and communities. We do this focusing on needed projects within the 4 Pillars of Self-Reliance.

Iltaqui and Jawapamba, Ecuador:
Project Focus -  Keep children from going hungry to allow them to focus on their education

Project Story – Upon interviewing local community members, it was found that missing school to find food was a common occurrence for children.  It was agreed that if ECH would build a kitchen, and supply a nominal monthly food stipend, community members would take shifts to cook the food and build a garden. Attendance has increased significantly and today well over 100 children are given meals in exchange for attending school.

Additional Expedition Help: In 2010 the school was cleaned top to bottom, the 2011 expedition project focused on building a new pre-school, and in 2012 expeditioneers worked with community members on community improvement goals.
